As climate shifts, energy resilience is becoming mission-critical for businesses. Chomp and Martin Energy have joined forces to deliver a breakthrough solution: the integration of Anaerobic Digestion (AD) and Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems. Together, they provide an end-to-end platform that transforms organic waste into renewable energy—reducing operational overhead costs associated with grid downtime, the cost of energy, and reliance on the power grid.

‍

What is Anaerobic Digestion?

Anaerobic Digestion (AD) is a biological process that breaks down organic materials like food waste, manure, and other biodegradable matter into biogas—a clean, renewable fuel—and biofertilizer. It's a low-waste, high-impact solution that helps divert organic materials from landfills while generating usable energy.

‍

What is Combined Heat and Power?

CHP, or cogeneration, is an energy system that captures and utilizes the heat typically lost during electricity generation. Instead of letting heat escape, CHP systems harness it for heating buildings, producing hot water, or even cooling through absorption chillers. When powered with the biogas produced by AD, CHP systems become a renewable, on-site energy generator—producing both electricity and heat in one closed-loop system.

‍

Where It Works

Facilities that produce organic waste and require continuous energy—such as campuses, hospitals, food processors, resorts, or farms—are ideal candidates. Imagine a university turning their cafeteria waste into energy to heat their water and using the biofertilizer for landscaping on campus. That’s real, circular sustainability.

Why It Matters

This integrated AD/CHP solution delivers measurable benefits:

• Reduced waste disposal costs
• Lower utility bills with on-site energy generation
• Increased facility uptime in grid-unreliable areas
• Access to clean, renewable power
• Scalable to fit community or business-level needs
  
  

Chomp’s small-scale AD units paired with Martin Energy’s compact CHP systems can now deliver this technology to organizations of all sizes—not just large industrial players. Even remote or infrastructure-underserved locations can now access dependable, clean energy.
