HomeBiogas LTD. (TASE: HMGS) is an Israeli publicly traded company engaged in developing, manufacturing, distributing, and selling domestic and industrial-scale biogas systems that offer a comprehensive solution for waste management, renewable energy creation, clean cooking, fertilizer production, and sanitation.
Q3 2022 highlights:
Recall that the company products address the needs of various markets, such as the cost of handling organic waste created by institutions in the US (~\$55 billion); global expenditures on wood fuel for cooking (~\$50 billion); the anaerobic digestion market (over ~\$15 billion by 2025 with a CAGR of 10.62%); and the global market of new sanitation technologies designed for low-resource settings (over ~\$6 billion by 2030). Also, regulatory trends in the US and EU support the company's operations. The recently published IPCC report prompts calls to tackle methane emissions, stating that methane gas has more than 80 times warming power in the near term than CO2. In parallel, prices of carbon credits are rising. This is a significant tailwind and opportunity for HomeBiogas, which reduces CO2 and methane release in landfills by turning the organic waste into renewable energy on-site.
In our view, HomeBiogas is advancing steps towards penetration into the US market, which is expected to increase the sales pace this year. In the background, continued marketing activity in the institutional market. However, macri economic is negatively affecting uncertantity and the potential demand for the Company's products. Price target is updated to NIS 15.2.

On the next page, we present the main events in the passing months and Q3 2022.

For further details on the company and its markets, please read our initiation of coverage report here.
HomeBiogas develops, manufactures and markets biogas systems for home and institutional use associated with the field of environment and green energy. The company's products enable local treatment and the use of waste and organic waste to produce clean energy for cooking and heating water and reduce negative health and environmental impacts. HomeBiogas' solutions have a social and environmental impact that enable companies and organizations to increase compliance with their ESG targets.
Sustainability and environmental trends, combined with maturity of micro-funding models in developing countries, and increasing cost of managing organic waste, are driving commercial adoption of small and medium scale on-site biogas systems. The anaerobic digestion market was valued at \$7.5 billion in 2018 and is expected to surpass \$15 billion by 2025 with a CAGR of 10.62% over the forecast period. Also, in light of the crisis following the war in Ukraine European countries have declared an increase in reliance on renewable energies including biogas.
Key driving trends for domestic/industrial scale systems are policies and regulations for on-site food waste treatment. Recently, the company signed an agreement with Insinkerator, a business division of the American corporation Emerson, which was recently sold to Whirlpool, for technological integration and the development of an integrated product to be installed in commercial and domestic kitchens for the production of biogas energy from organic waste. Emerson is a market leader in automation solutions for private and institutional kitchens. Home Biogas has completed the first phase of technological integration at the company's test sites.
HomeBiogas provides patent-based domestic/industrial scale anaerobic digestion modular biogas systems that enable people and businesses to turn their organic waste into self-made clean energy on-site. Their vision is to promote sustainability, improve lives, and positively impact the environment by harnessing its expertise in waste treatment and biogas systems. The current line of products for domestic and small farms includes three biogas systems of different sizes - HomeBiogas 2, 4, and 7 cubic meters – which treat organic waste and turn it into cooking gas and fertilizer, a Bio-toilet that turns human waste into biogas (cooking gas), and additional products such as stoves, filters and probiotic tablets.
The company has completed the development of a first prototype of the home system for modern kitchens and expecting first U.S. pilots in early 2023. The organic waste of the modern household kitchen will be ground
In the kitchen sink and the company's system will turn it into renewable enrgy for water heating for the household use. Beyond the benefits of treating organic waste onsite, this system will help alleviate the existing overload on the municipal sewer system resulting from current practice of installing garbage disposal unit


As part of its strategy, the company intends to increase its market share in several selected countries, leveraging existing and future agreements with local distributors. In addition, the company plans to offer "Pay as You Go" models, making biogas systems accessible to a larger pool of customers. In the institutional field, the company intends to offer operators of commercial-size kitchens (such as hotel chains) an OPEX-based model for having a small-footprint biogas system that saves costs and meets alternative energy and ESG targets.
Therefore, we view HomeBiogas as an excellent opportunity for those seeking to invest in sustainable energy and positively impact the environment while improving people lives.

The initial prototype was piloted in 2014. In 2016, the first generation became commercially available.
The current line of products includes 3 biogas systems (HomeBiogas 2, 4, and 7 cubic meters sizes) built from 3 core elements:
The domestic systems are made of 100% recyclable materials and have a patented mechanical pressure generation mechanism (ensuring that the filtered gas pressure in the storage tank remains constant and controlled).
Key features include:




Treating toilet waste, 100% off-the-grid, and only use 1.2 liters of water per flush from a standing source (no electricity is required).
Additional productsinclude cooking stoves, probiotic tablets, and filters.
The company is in the market penetration stage a line of on-site organic waste treatment systems for commercial and industrial kitchens of public institutes, companies, hotels, restaurants, and food complexes.
The systems use an anaerobic digestion process to decompose the organic waste into biogas and organic liquid fertilizer. The biogas is used for water heating or electicity generation, and the liquid is best used as a bio-fertilizer. The kitchen waste is fed to the grinding unit and from there transferred to the anaerobic digester container; the waste is broken down in an anaerobic process; the generated gas is converted immediately into hot water; and the hot water serves the needs of the kitchen.
The product portfolio includes a few systems in pilot stages, with scalable volume capacity and size from 100kg per day to 1,000 kg per day, expected to be commercially available during 2022.
Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's) adopted at the 2015 United Nations Summit provide the principles, framework, and targets for all stakeholders across the value chains to identify key development areas to enhance and seek continual improvement regarding to sustainability, good health, well-being, and climate action.


HomeBiogas has a strong value proposition matching with 8 of the 17 UN goals, making it attractive and highly-relevant to commercial companies, organizations, banks, and governments.
The updated European Commission's Circular Economy Action Plan from March 2019 is committed to the United Nations SDGs. The plan involves the entire value chain and major focus areas relevant to HomeBiogas: Waste reduction at source, Diversion from landfills, and Sustainable business best practices. One of the targets for 2035 is the reduction of municipal waste landfilling volume by 50%.
The Anaerobic Digestion market was valued at \$7.5 billion in 2018. It is expected to surpass \$15.0 billion by 2025 with a CAGR of 10.62% over the forecast period.
According to the American biogas council, investment in new biogas systems in 2018 totaled \$1 billion. In recent years, investments in the US biogas industry have been growing at an annual rate of 12%. Although there is already a wide application of biogas technologies worldwide, the industry is still in its initial stages of development. The biogas industry can be analysed in 3 broad categories: micro digesters using biogas, scale digesters generating electricity, and scale digesters producing biomethane3 .
Biogas from micro-scale digesters is most often used in stoves for cooking or heating, displacing solid, high emission fuels like firewood and charcoal, and play an important role in developing countries, where they are an integral part of farming, waste management, and energy security.
The World Biogas Association estimates that close to 50 million micro-scale digesters are operating worldwide, with 42 million operating in China and another 5 million in India, and some 700,000 installed in the rest of Asia, Africa, and South America4 . Flexible (balloon/bag digester) systems such as HomeBiogas products are relatively new in the market and have a superior value proposition because it is quick to install (DIY/prefabricated), has lower costs and innovative payment models.
According to World Bank, the UN, and the FAO reports, between 2.4 and 3.5 billion people worldwide do not have access to clean cooking fuels and technologies. These people use inefficient open fires or simple cookstoves today and rely on wood-based fuel, including wood, charcoal, and coal, for cooking.
There are many negative impacts of these types of fuels. Environmentally, inefficient fuel production and consumption lead to increased GHG emissions, solid fuel cooking is tied to catalytic warming effects of black carbon emissions, and forest degradation/deforestation due to fuel collection and production. In terms of health, a broad range of health conditions are associated with indoor air pollution; hundreds of thousands of burns, deaths, and injuries are associated with traditional fuels/cooking appliances; and firewood collection leads to chronic and acute physical ailments. Economically, there is a large amount of avoidable spending on fuel, and lost opportunities for income generation on time spent collecting fuel and cooking.

Costs are the main barrier for adopting clean cooking solutions. The lack of progress in expanding access to clean, modern cooking costs the world more than \$2.4 trillion each year, according to a report released in September 2020 by the Clean Cooking Alliance, the World Bank, and the Modern Energy Cooking Services program. The report estimated that US\$150 billion is needed annually to reach universal access to modern energy cooking services by 2030.
Reports found that the problem is not a lack of consumer expenditure but the need for business models and technologies that make superior alternatives affordable and accessible. Over the last decade, the industry is transitioning from aid-based to becoming commercially viable. To lower barriers and support the adoption of clean solutions, the World Bank's recently announced \$500 million Clean Cooking Fund, housed under the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP)5 .
Sanitation is a basic necessity that contributes to better human health, dignity, and quality of life.
The UN's SDG 6 water and sanitation monitoring program reports that in 2017, over 2 billion people lack basic sanitation services, with 673 million people still practiced open defecation, with 91% live in rural areas 6 . The result is that the poor are deprived of decent and dignified lifestyles leading to the deterioration of health, wellbeing, and human environment. According to the World Health Organization, poor sanitation and hygiene practices contribute to over 820,000 deaths from diarrhea annually.
Small-scale off-grid sanitation solutions aim to deliver services for the safe disposal of human urine and feces. Off-grid solutions include traditional and improved latrines (various kinds of pits), container-based sanitation (CBS), flush toilets connected to septic tanks, and various wastewater collection and treatment facilities, such as fecal sludge management technologies.
Lack of proper sanitation costs the world an estimated \$223 billion every year. It is estimated that the annual market value for new sanitation technologies designed for low-resource settings, such as the HomeBiogas Bio-Toilet, could potentially reach more than \$6 billion globally by 20307 .

A United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) report from July 2020 on Wasted Food Measurements estimated that the Hospitality and Institutional sectors, which are only responsible for 25% of total food waste8 , generated 24 million tons of waste in 2016. Potential solutions to process food waste include centralized (such as large AD facilities at landfill locations) and decentralized systems (small-scale systems near the kitchens).
Key driversinclude price increases and limited availability of alternative energy sources such as coal, wood, gas, and polluting fuels in developing countries; increasing awareness of the health damage of cooking with charcoal or wood; a growing amount of government regulations that drive organizations and institutions to look for alternatives to organic waste treatment – including the Global Methane Pledge announced at COP26, which committed signatories to reducing their overall emissions by 30% by 2030, compared with 2020 levels; support by government aid organizations and subsidiesincluding the UN, World Bank, and many other NGO and commercial organizations; the price and availability of fertilizers; and the Solar PV "Pay as You Go" model maturity, paving the way for growth and adoption scale in the clean cooking and sanitation domains.
The key restraints include prices and funding alternatives that reduce the number of customers that can afford to purchase the systems; poor operational / logistics infrastructure for delivering systems in rural areas; local taxes and fees imposed by the governments increase prices; and limited partners and local talents are required for demonstrations, installations, and services.
