Greenlane Announces Customer's Inauguration of its new Strategic Biomethane Hub in Brazil

~Greenlane customer, Orizon, inaugurated its biomethane producing project featuring a system supplied by Greenlane at Ecoparque Jaboatão, connecting waste management to decarbonization solutions for industry, urban mobility, and households~

VANCOUVER, BC, March 27, 2026 /CNW/ - Greenlane Renewables Inc. ("Greenlane" or the "Company") (TSX: GRN) (FSE: 52G) announced its customer, Orizon Valorização de Resíduos S.A. ("Orizon"), a leading platform in integrated circular economy and energy transition solutions, today inaugurated its new biomethane plant at Ecoparque Jaboatão in Pernambuco, Brazil, featuring a complete biogas upgrading system supplied by Greenlane. With an investment of R$258 million (C$62 million), the facility positions Orizon at the forefront of renewable fuel production in Brazil, integrating waste management, energy infrastructure, and decarbonization into a single strategic asset.

The inauguration ceremony was attended by Brazil's Minister of Mines and Energy, Alexandre Silveira; the Governor of Pernambuco, Raquel Lyra; the Mayor of Jaboatão dos Guararapes, Mano Medeiros; the Mayor of Recife, João Campos; and the State Superintendent of Banco do Nordeste do Brasil (BNB), Hugo Luiz de Queiroz.

The Minister was honored by Orizon in recognition of his contribution to advancing Brazil's energy transition agenda.

Developed by Orizon, and supplied by Greenlane, the new biomethane plant harnesses biogas generated from the decomposition of waste, which is captured and purified to produce biomethane. The result is a renewable fuel that can be used within existing fossil gas distribution infrastructure without requiring modifications, while also reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

The new facility has the capacity to produce 110,000 m³ per day of biomethane, which will be injected directly into the Copergás (Pernambuco Gas Company) pipeline network and distributed for residential and industrial use. Greenlane announced the system supply contract on October 5, 2023, and onsite construction began in May 2024 and was completed at the end of 2025, with financing provided by BNB.

Exploring the Ecopark

Prior to the inauguration ceremony, authorities visited the headquarters of the Instituto Orizon Social in Jaboatão, located within the ecopark. The institute is a non-profit organization supported by Orizon that operates in regions where the company is present, focusing on environmental education and initiatives that contribute to local sustainable development.

Following this, authorities participated in a technical visit to the biomethane plant, where they observed the biogas purification process firsthand.

"It has been an absolute delight for Greenlane to collaborate with Orizon on this flagship biomethane project in the Brazilian State of Pernambuco, which represents a critical piece of infrastructure providing low-carbon energy to the local community," said Brad Douville, Chief Executive Officer of Greenlane. "This was a large and complex project built on the strength of Greenlane's proven track record and deep base of experience. Greenlane is committed to enabling its customers to enhance revenue generating biomethane output from their assets while minimizing upfront investment, making biomethane projects more accessible and scalable."

About Biomethane

Biomethane is a 100% renewable and sustainable fuel produced by purifying biogas derived from the decomposition of organic matter, such as municipal waste.

At Ecoparque Jaboatão, the biogas originates from the decomposition of 3,500 tonnes of waste generated daily by 2.5 million people across Recife, Jaboatão dos Guararapes, Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Vitória de Santo Antão, and Moreno.

Benefits

One of the key advantages of biomethane is that, unlike other renewable fuels, its production from landfills ensures a continuous supply without seasonality. In addition, production sites are typically located near major urban centers, providing a stable supply for heavy-duty and urban transportation fleets, as well as industrial applications.

Another benefit is the existing infrastructure, which includes a city gate connected to the gas distribution network, enabling immediate injection of biomethane into the fossil gas system. Orizon is also evaluating the future implementation of liquefaction systems to serve customers outside the pipeline network and expand biomethane availability across Brazil.

In 2025, Brazil's National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP) granted authorization for the Jaboatão plant to produce and commercialize biomethane, confirming that the operation fully complies with the agency's technical and operational requirements.

Strategic Asset

"The inauguration of the biomethane plant at Ecoparque Jaboatão marks a milestone for the sustainable development of Pernambuco and Brazil, expanding the availability of competitive and sustainable energy solutions in the country," said Milton Pilão, CEO of Orizon. "With this new unit, we are increasing biomethane production with reliability, predictability, and industrial-scale capacity. This solution enables our clients to advance their decarbonization goals with environmental integrity and operational efficiency, without compromising performance."

Greenlane continues to expand its global presence by providing advanced biogas desulfurization and upgrading solutions that help customers decarbonize energy systems while creating long-term environmental and economic value.

About Ecoparque Jaboatão dos Guararapes: With an area of 1.1 million m², the ecopark is responsible for the environmentally appropriate disposal of 3,500 tonnes of waste per day generated by 2.5 million people across Recife, Jaboatão dos Guararapes, Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Vitória de Santo Antão, and Moreno. More than 550 garbage trucks arrive daily. The site houses the largest Mechanical Sorting Unit (UTM) in Latin America, capable of sorting more than 20 types of materials, ensuring a consistent and traceable supply of recycled materials. Recovered products include plastics, paper, wood, metal, and glass. The UTM also produces refuse-derived fuel (RDF), a sustainable alternative to petroleum coke with lower pollutant emissions. The ecopark includes a 28.5 MW thermoelectric plant that converts biogas into electricity and generates carbon credits by preventing methane emissions into the atmosphere.

About Orizon: Listed on Brazil's B3 stock exchange and operating 18 ecoparks across 12 states, Orizon is an integrated platform for sustainable waste valorization solutions that drive the circular economy. Its operations range from environmentally appropriate waste disposal to the transformation of waste into new resources, including biomethane, biogas, recyclable materials, RDF, organic fertilizers, and carbon credits.
