Vanguard Renewables

Vanguard Renewables is a national leader in food and beverage waste recycling and organic waste-to-renewable energy solutions. We own and operate a growing portfolio of anaerobic digestion and depackaging facilities across the country. Each site converts agricultural waste and regional food and beverage streams into clean energy and nutrient-rich digestate, a natural fertilizer alternative that supports soil health and reduces costs for the farms we partner with.

Our collaborations with food manufacturers, retailers, institutions, and other food users provide a pathway to real waste diversion, decarbonization, and sustainability outcomes, backed by reliable, cost-efficient operations. Partners also have the option to procure renewable energy generated from our nationwide network of facilities.

As experts in organics management, we provide a complete waste solution, from hauling to depackaging, recycling, and certificates of destruction, ensuring the food and beverage waste we collect always reaches its highest and best use.

Vanguard Renewables is a portfolio company of funds managed by BlackRock.
