Revenue model

1. Green Gas (Biomethane) Sales: SFP Group produces green gas via anaerobic digestion of organic residual streams. The green gas is upgraded to natural gas quality and injected directly into the Dutch national gas grid (G-gasnet), generating revenue from gas network operators and energy suppliers. This is the primary revenue stream.
2. Organic Fertilizer Sales: Digestate from biogas production is processed into organic fertilizer in solid and liquid forms, sold to the agricultural sector as a replacement for synthetic fertilizers, contributing to circular economy revenue.
3. Bio-CO2 Sales: Bio-CO2 is captured during green gas production, purified to food-grade quality, and sold to greenhouse horticulture (as photosynthesis fertilizer) and the food industry (as a refrigerant), generating additional revenue from what would otherwise be a waste product.
4. SFP Service — Maintenance and Support: SFP Service, a subsidiary of SFP Group, provides maintenance and service for biogas and green gas installations to both SFP Group facilities and third-party operators. Revenue is generated through service contracts, periodic maintenance, process optimization, and training services.
5. SFP Logistics — Transport Services: SFP Logistics provides transport services for organic fertilizers (solid and liquid), collects various residual streams from suppliers, and offers logistics solutions using a fleet of walking floor trailers, tank trucks, and a mobile unboxing line. Revenue is earned through freight and logistics fees charged to customers and suppliers.
6. SFP Commodities — Feedstock and GVO Trading: SFP Commodities handles the trading of feedstock (input materials) for SFP's own installations and also trades Guarantees of Origin (GVO) certificates, contributing to revenue from feedstock supply and sustainability certification services.

Core offering

Sustainable Fuel Plant Group operates large-scale anaerobic digestion installations that convert organic residual streams (plant-based residues, food processing by-products, manure) into three sellable outputs: green gas (biomethane) injected into the Dutch national gas grid, organic fertilizer (solid and liquid) for the agricultural sector, and food-grade Bio-CO2 for greenhouse horticulture and the food industry. The company runs an integrated DBOOM (Design, Build, Operate, Optimize, Maintain) model and complements production with subsidiary services for maintenance (SFP Service), transport (SFP Logistics), and feedstock/GVO certificate trading (SFP Commodities).

Product overview

SFP Group is a Dutch sustainable energy company founded in 2020 that develops, builds, and operates scalable biogas installations. The company operates three production facilities (SFP Zeeland, SFP Friesland, and SFP Groningen) producing three main products: green gas (biomethane), organic fertilizers, and Bio-CO₂. The portfolio includes three sub-brands: SFP Commodities (feedstock trading and GVO certificates), SFP Logistics (transport services), and SFP Service (maintenance and support for biogas installations). The company follows a DBOOM approach (Design, Build, Operate, Optimize, Maintain) keeping all processes in-house.

Direct peers

• Attero: Major Dutch waste processor with significant biogas and green gas operations from organic fractions. Operates comparable AD infrastructure in the Netherlands and competes for the same feedstock base.
• Nature Energy: Denmark-based, large-scale biomethane producer operating a network of AD plants upgrading biogas to grid-injected RNG. Direct international comparable to SFP's multi-site biomethane platform.
• Verbio: German producer of biomethane, biodiesel and bioethanol from agricultural residues. Comparable as a publicly listed European biomethane operator monetising multiple bio-products from agricultural feedstocks.
• HVC: Dutch energy and waste company that operates large-scale anaerobic digestion and green gas production from organic waste, injecting into the Dutch gas grid. HVC is the closest domestic comparable to SFP's AD-to-RNG value chain.

Broad incumbents

• Twence: Dutch waste and energy company operating incineration, composting, and biogas/green gas facilities. Comparable as a Dutch multi-site waste-to-energy incumbent with overlapping organic waste and biogas activities.
• Hitachi Zosen Inova (Schmack Biogas): Large international waste-to-energy and biogas technology group that acquired Schmack Biogas. Provides AD plant technology and operations at a much larger scale than SFP, serving as a broader incumbent peer.

Emerging players

• BioConstruct: European builder of turnkey biogas and biomethane plants, with overlapping customer base of agricultural feedstock suppliers. Comparable on the EPC side of SFP's integrated model.
• HoSt Group: Dutch designer and builder of anaerobic digestion and biogas upgrading installations. Overlaps with SFP's DBOOM design-build capability, although HoSt primarily sells technology rather than operating plants.
• Weltec Biopower: German provider of AD/biogas plant construction and operation. Comparable in the European biogas infrastructure market, particularly for SFP's plant replication strategy.

Regional players

• Gasrec: UK supplier of biomethane for transport and grid applications. Comparable in biomethane offtake and trading, though serving the UK rather than the Dutch market.
