PlanET History. It is not uncommon for the humble beginnings of aspiring innovators to start in the modest confines of a home. Such was the case for Jörg Meyer zu Strohe and his college friend Hendrik Becker. Sons of farmers in Vreden, Germany, these two future entrepreneurs, full of enthusiasm for renewable energy, the environment and climate protection, started a business called PlanET Biogastechnik in 1998. From their earliest beginnings, these new business owners and engineers anchored sustainability and environmental protection in the company philosophy.
Today, PlanET is one of the world leaders in the biogas industry with 700+ biogas plants and 100+ RNG plants worldwide.
Currently in Germany, France, Brazil, Canada and the United States, PlanET provides market-leading expertise in the design, construction, and servicing of anaerobic digestion and biogas utilization systems including RNG plants. The highly skilled
employees are customer focused and PlanET biogas plants are characterized by reliability, innovation and efficiency.
