Competitive selections under the Army’s Enhanced Use Lease authority would support commercial nuclear power generation projects designed to enhance Army mission readiness and installation energy resilience FRAMINGHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Ameresco, Inc. (NYSE: AMRC), a leading energy infrastructure company delivering integrated solutions to create reliable power and modernize infrastructure, today announced that the U.S. Army under its Strategic Capital Initiatives has competitively selected Ameresco to enter into exclusive negotiation of long-term leases supporting commercial power generation projects at Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland and Picatinny Arsenal in New Jersey. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260921584836/en/ Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey (top), and Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland (bottom), are among the U.S. Army installations selected for potential commercial power generation projects aimed at strengthening energy resilience and mission readiness. Ameresco has been selected to enter into exclusive negotiations for long-term leases at both sites. The Army made the selections under its Enhanced Use Lease authority, 10 U.S.C. § 2667, through its Strategic Capital Initiatives, which are designed to engage private-sector partners in accelerating enterprise-wide modernization. The projects to be developed on the leased land are expected to provide market-based capacity to each state’s grid while supporting the host installations’ missions during utility outages. Ameresco will negotiate each lease with the Army, however, development is beginning immediately. For the Picatinny project, Ameresco intends to deploy both modular microreactor (Phase I) and small modular reactor (Phase II) technologies determined based on the project’s commercial, technical, regulatory, and siting requirements. Ameresco is collaborating with Terrestrial Energy to develop and deploy an integrated molten salt reactor (IMSR) as the nuclear solution best suited to the Phase 2 site at Aberdeen Proving Ground. Key Details: Award structure: Ameresco has been selected to negotiate long-term leases under the U.S. Army’s Enhanced Use Lease authority. Project locations: Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland and Picatinny Arsenal in New Jersey. Project scope: Proposed phased power generation campuses, potentially including firm natural gas and advanced nuclear generation at Aberdeen Proving Ground, and microreactor and small modular reactor technologies at Picatinny Arsenal, subject to final agreements and required approvals. Project purpose: Commercial power generation intended to add market-based grid capacity while supporting resilient on-site capabilities for Army installations during qualifying grid outages. “Ameresco is honored to be among the companies selected to support the U.S. Army’s Strategic Capital Initiatives and advance energy resilience across critical military installations,” said Nicole

First agricultural RNG project for Neogenyx Fuels will convert livestock manure into pipeline-quality renewable natural gas while supporting economic development FRAMINGHAM, Mass. & BROKEN BOW, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Ameresco, Inc., (NYSE: AMRC), a leading energy infrastructure company, today announced the groundbreaking of a natural gas facility being developed by Ameresco through its subsidiary Neogenyx Fuels at the Adams Land & Cattle feedlot in Broken Bow, Nebraska. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260831039282/en/ Neogenyx Fuels and Adams Land & Cattle are joined by Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen, U.S. Senator Pete Ricketts, and industry leaders during the ceremonial groundbreaking of a renewable natural gas facility in Broken Bow, Nebraska. The August 26, 2026 ceremony brought together agricultural, energy, government, and community leaders to recognize the start of construction on Neogenyx Fuels' first agricultural RNG facility and highlights the growing role renewable fuels can play in supporting agriculture, domestic energy production, and economic development. The groundbreaking drew strong attendance and featured remarks from Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen, U.S. Senator Pete Ricketts, Neogenyx Fuels CEO Michael Bakas, Adams Land & Cattle CEO Abram Babcock, and American Biogas Council Vice President of Policy Heather Dziedzic. The event concluded with an official groundbreaking ceremony and tour of the future facility site. The Neogenyx Fuels-owned facility is designed to capture manure from the feedlot and convert it into renewable natural gas through eight anaerobic digesters capable of generating more than 4,400 SCFM of biogas. Once upgraded to pipeline-quality RNG, the facility is expected to produce approximately 1.2 million MMBtu annually for transportation and other energy applications. Process byproducts will be beneficially reused onsite as livestock bedding and agricultural fertilizer. The project is also expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 63,700 metric tons annually, equivalent to the carbon sequestered by roughly 63,800 acres of U.S. forest each year. “Last week's groundbreaking demonstrated what's possible when agriculture, innovation, and energy infrastructure come together,” said Leila Dillon, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at Ameresco. “The Adams Land & Cattle project is not only transformational for the operation and the broader agricultural sector, but it also provides a blueprint for how American agriculture can play a larger role in the global energy economy.” “The Adams Land & Cattle RNG facility demonstrates how American agriculture can play an important role in the future of renewable fuels,” said Michael Bakas, CEO of Neogenyx Fuels. “By converting livestock waste into renewable natural gas with the potential to support bio-LNG production for global maritime markets, this project connects Nebraska to the growing demand for lower-carbon energy solutions across the world while driving private investment, job creation and local econo
