MKR - Montauk Renewables Inc
Montauk Renewables is a renewable energy company specializing in recovery and processing of biogas from landfills and other non-fossil fuel sources for beneficial use as a replacement to fossil fuels. The company develops, owns, and operates renewable natural gas ("RNG") projects in the US, using proven technologies that supply renewable fuel into the transportation and electrical power sectors. Montauk Renewables established its operating portfolio of 12 RNG and three renewable electricity projects through self-development, partnerships, and acquisitions resulting in revenue growth from $34 million in 2014 to $107.4 million in 2019.
Currently, Montauk Renewables' operating projects generate RNG from landfill sites and livestock farms, the latter being a significant opportunity to expand the RNG business as other agricultural markets are evaluated. The projects provide their landfill and livestock farm partners benefits including a means to monetize biogas from their sites, support for their regulatory compliance, and provision of environmental services. Revenues of Montauk Renewables are generated from the sale of renewable natural gas and electricity, under long-term contracts, along with the environmental attributes that are derived from these products.
