Start your market with one container.
The 100 kg/day food-waste plant is a complete, fully containerised and mobile biogas plant. For new franchise partners it is the ideal way to open a market.
- Show it working: clients see the whole biogas process live, from food waste to gas and fertiliser.
- Move it: the container goes to fairs, hotels, campuses and pilot sites.
- Scale up: from the demonstrator to MiraX and full-size Bert plants.
Demonstrate
100 kg/day container plant as showcase and first reference.
Containerised
MiraX container plants for larger volumes of organic waste.
Farm and food industry
Bert plants for food waste, manure, straw and other substrates.
Industrial
Large digesters with CHP, e.g. 800 m³ / 100 kW in Japan.
Why Bert works with local partners
Every country has its own rules for permits, imports and grid or gas connections, and its own language. A biogas plant needs a supplier who knows all of this and is close to the customer. That is why Bert sells through franchise partners instead of shipping plants anonymously around the world.
What a Bert partner does
- Develops the market and is the customer's first contact, in the local language
- Obtains planning and construction permits under local regulations
- Imports, installs and commissions the plants
- Provides service and maintenance on site
Business models
Depending on the market, projects can be structured as a direct plant purchase or as partner-led BOOT / Biogas-as-a-Service models with an O&M contract. For suitable project portfolios, Bert and its partners can also help evaluate carbon-credit opportunities.
What Bert provides
Becoming a Bert partner starts with an in-depth training programme. After that, Bert Energy and its partners such as Kankyo Bert stay at your side. The franchise contract is your guarantee that you can always rely on our know-how and service, today and for every plant you build in the future.
- Technology licence and the Bert brand
- Training in sales, engineering and service
- Territory protection for your market

- Access to local leasing options, so that you can offer leasing programmes to your customers
Biogas plants are leasable. This makes them much more affordable for your customers, with leasing terms of up to five years and a ten-year warranty on the fermenter. Financing is usually no big problem for leasing partners. We will help you as a franchise partner to get access to local leasing options.
