Kilcoy Project Wins Outstanding Biogas Project Award

by

Evo Energy Technologies is proud to announce that our work with Kilcoy Global Foods has been recognised at the 2025 Australian Renewable Heat Conference Awards, hosted by the Australian Alliance for Energy Productivity (A2EP). The Kilcoy Co-generation Project received the award for Outstanding Biogas Project, celebrating its role as a benchmark in renewable energy for the food industry.

The project features three Combined Heat and Power (CHP) engines with a total capacity of 4 MW, powered by biogas from onsite wastewater treatment. Supported by Evo Command heat pumps and a Biological Desulphurisation Treatment process, the system transforms waste into clean, reliable energy.

This achievement has enabled Kilcoy to become the first certified carbon-neutral large-scale beef processing facility in Australia, generating electricity equivalent to powering 4,000 homes each year while cutting reliance on grid power.

The award highlights the innovation and impact of integrating CHP, heat pumps, and advanced biogas treatment, and we are proud to have delivered this milestone in sustainable meat processing.

1MW Cogeneration System Secured for NewCold Truganina Site

by

Evo Energy Technologies has secured the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract for a major energy upgrade at NewCold’s advanced cold storage facility in Truganina, Victoria. The project involves the installation of a 1MW natural gas-fired cogeneration system, designed with built-in capacity for future trigeneration through an ammonia absorption chiller.

The new system will generate on-site electricity and thermal energy to support NewCold’s operations, significantly reducing reliance on the grid and improving overall energy resilience. With a total system efficiency of 87.7%, the installation is expected to offset over 2,200 tonnes of carbon emissions annually.

NewCold is a global leader in temperature-controlled logistics for food and pharmaceutical supply chains. This project supports their sustainability goals and operational efficiency while laying the foundation for future cooling expansion using the same energy source.

The plant is also future-fuel capable, offering the ability to transition to alternative fuels such as Biomethane, LNG or Hydrogen as they become commercially viable.

This award recognises Evo Energy Technologies’ continued leadership in delivering high-performance energy systems across Australia’s industrial and logistics sectors.
