VIRESCO taps into potential energy: in the possibilities of repurposing all sorts of carbon-based waste, and in the partnerships that will renew how we power the world.
How it Works >Our goal is to redefine the word “waste.” Because in a world of by-products, expired foods, mis-packaged, oops-we-did-it-again trash and other carbon-based waste, there’s great potential in repurposing every molecule into something useable. We’re an engineering and technology company focused on making sure no bit of waste is left unclaimed.
Our Turtle Lake Anaerobic Digestion Facility boasts a 25 GWh renewable electricity generation capacity per year
Engineering enough energy to power 2,300 homes**Based on 2020 US EIA data for average electricity consumption for a single residential utility customer.
Using anaerobic digestion to create power is nothing new—but inconsistent, inefficient systems have earned it a bad rap. Our patented technology and engineering know-how converts organic liquid, pre- and post-packaged waste into clean biogas and renewable energy at much greater efficiency.
