ReGenerate Energy

What ReGenerate Energy does

ReGenerate Energy Holdings LLC is a private bioenergy platform that owns and operates three biomass-fueled power generation facilities totaling 137 MW across Georgia (Albany Green Energy, 50 MW) and Maine (ReGenerate Stratton, 48 MW; ReGenerate Livermore Falls, 39 MW). The platform was formed in April 2021 as a joint venture between Ember Infrastructure, a New York-based private equity firm focused on decarbonization infrastructure, and ReEnergy Biomass Operations LLC, which contributes operational expertise. ReGenerate generates renewable baseload electricity and process steam using sustainably sourced wood residues, forestry waste, mill residue, and agricultural waste procured from approximately 100 logging companies and 20 sawmills within tight geographic radii around each facility. Core technology includes Valmet circulating fluidized bed boilers, Zurn stoker grate boilers, electrostatic precipitators, SNCR emissions controls, and baghouse/lime injection systems. Revenue is generated through long-term fixed-price power purchase agreements (20 years with Georgia Power through 2037 and Central Maine Power commenced 2021), industrial steam supply agreements (20 years with Procter & Gamble through 2037 and 25 years with Constellation New Energy for USMC Logistics Base through 2041), biochar production (up to 8,000 tons annually), wood ash sales to roughly 60 Maine farmers, and third-party asset management services. ReGenerate additionally pursues co-located electricity and steam sales to adjacent industrial facilities such as Stratton Lumber, and is developing biochar and biochar-based carbon products via gasification technology supported by a Maine Technology Institute grant.

Scale indicators11 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• DTE Energy: Investor-owned utility with a significant biomass cogeneration portfolio (e.g., Genoa, Aullville) using wood waste and agricultural residues, serving as both a potential PPA counterparty and a comparable operator of utility-scale biomass CHP assets.
• Covanta Holding Corporation: North America's largest waste-to-energy operator running ~40 facilities with CHP configurations analogous to ReGenerate's biomass plants, though using MSW rather than forestry residues; several ReGenerate executives (e.g., Mark Thibodeau) are Covanta alumni.
• Clearway Energy: NYSE-listed renewable yieldco that owns contracted biomass/waste-to-energy capacity alongside solar, wind, and storage; competes with ReGenerate for utility PPA procurement dollars and infrastructure capital.
• Veolia North America: Operates large-scale waste-to-energy and biomass facilities in the U.S. and Canada, providing CHP and steam to industrial and district energy customers analogous to ReGenerate's Albany Green Energy configuration.
• RWE Renewables Americas: Global renewable IPP that owns and operates biomass generation assets (e.g., residual wood-fired plants) and competes for utility-scale renewable PPAs alongside ReGenerate in North America.
• Boralex: Canadian renewable IPP with biomass and wood-residue generation assets in Maine (formerly known as Boralex operations that ReGenerate's GM Erik Norgren managed), competing for similar biomass feedstock and PPA structures.

Direct peers

• Babcock & Wilcox: Supplies biomass combustion and heat recovery technology (CFB, grate boilers, emissions controls) used in facilities like ReGenerate's; a key technology peer and potential partner as ReGenerate retrofits or expands.
• ReEnergy Holdings: ReEnergy Biomass Operations is ReGenerate's operational JV partner and contributor of the original Maine biomass assets; it operates biomass power facilities in the Northeast under a similar model with comparable feedstock and offtaker structures.
• Greenidge Generation Holdings: Owner-operator of biomass/natural gas generation in New York State; directly comparable as a contracted biomass-to-power platform of similar scale pursuing data center co-location and baseload renewable positioning.

Emerging players

• Ameresco: Renewable energy and energy services company that develops, owns, and operates biomass and biogas plants with long-term offtake agreements; comparable business model with a heavier emphasis on energy services and federal customer base.
