Abundia's Pitch: Turning Texas Waste into High-Value Green Fuels

HOUSTON, TX – March 10, 2026 – As executives from Abundia Global Impact Group prepare to meet with investors at the prestigious ROTH Conference later this month, the stakes are high. The newly public company is not just selling a vision; it is presenting a meticulously planned strategy to convert the world’s mounting plastic and biomass waste into a multi-billion dollar revenue stream. With a flagship facility taking shape on the Texas coast, Abundia is making a bold case that the future of energy isn't just green—it's built from the trash we leave behind.

Chief Executive Officer Ed Gillespie and Chief Operating Officer Joe Gasik will lead the charm offensive in Dana Point, California, from March 22-24. Their agenda is packed with one-on-one meetings where they will lay out the company’s ambitious commercialization plan. For Abundia, this conference is more than a routine investor relations event; it is a critical step in securing the capital and partnerships needed to scale its operations in the competitive low-carbon energy sector.

The High-Stakes Investor Pitch

Abundia’s story is one of transformation, both for the waste it processes and for the company itself. Formerly Houston American Energy Corp. (HUSA), the firm pivoted from traditional oil and gas to the circular economy, rebranding and debuting on the NYSE American exchange under the ticker AGIG in December 2025. This transition positions the company to capitalize on what it identifies as an $800 billion addressable energy market, driven by powerful regulatory tailwinds and a growing corporate demand for sustainable solutions.

Investors at the ROTH Conference will be listening for two things: proof of concept and a clear path to profitability. Abundia plans to deliver on both fronts. The core of its pitch revolves around its “attractive facility unit economics” and the key milestones it has already achieved. The company is not starting from scratch; it entered the public market with significant backing, including over $20 million in pre-public investment and a $100 million equity line to fuel its growth.

This foundation was further solidified in February 2026 with the closing of a $20 million registered direct offering of common stock. This aggressive funding strategy is essential. Building commercial-scale conversion facilities is a capital-intensive endeavor, and Abundia’s ability to execute its plan hinges on maintaining investor confidence and a steady flow of capital as it moves from development to commercial operation.

The Alchemy of Waste: A Dual-Technology Approach

At the heart of Abundia’s business model is its “dual-pathway” technological platform. Rather than gambling on unproven, proprietary science, the company has de-risked its strategy by securing licensing agreements for commercially validated technologies. This approach allows Abundia to focus on deployment and execution rather than fundamental research and development.

For plastic waste, Abundia has licensed Alterra Technology's advanced continuous pyrolysis process. This system has been operating at a commercial scale in Ohio, demonstrating its ability to thermochemically break down hard-to-recycle plastics into a consistent, refinery-grade pyrolysis oil. This oil can then be sold and upgraded into new plastics or high-value, low-carbon fuels like diesel and naphtha. In a significant expansion of this partnership, Abundia recently secured rights to develop two additional plastics recycling sites in the U.S., each capable of converting 160,000 tons of waste plastic into 105,000 tons of renewable products annually.

For biomass waste, the company is leveraging a fast pyrolysis technology from BTG Bioliquids. This pathway is aimed squarely at producing renewable diesel and, critically, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)—a market experiencing explosive demand due to airline industry decarbonization goals and government mandates. The process creates a stable bio-oil that Abundia is developing pilot-scale hydrotreating methods to upgrade into drop-in jet and diesel fuels.

The term “drop-in” is crucial to Abundia’s value proposition. The fuels and chemical feedstocks it produces are designed to be chemically indistinguishable from their fossil-based counterparts, allowing them to integrate seamlessly into existing pipelines, refineries, and distribution networks. This eliminates the need for costly new infrastructure for end-users, significantly lowering the barrier to adoption.

Building a Green Hub on the Gulf Coast

Abundia is planting its flag in the heart of America’s traditional energy and chemical sector. In July 2025, the company acquired a 25-acre industrial site in Cedar Port, Baytown, Texas. The location is no accident. Situated within the largest private industrial park in the U.S., the site offers unparalleled logistical advantages, including proximity to the Houston Ship Channel, extensive rail and highway access, and, most importantly, a dense network of feedstock suppliers and downstream upgrading partners.

This site is not just the location for the first commercial plant; it is envisioned as Abundia's operational headquarters and Innovation Center. The company broke ground in October 2025 and is rapidly moving forward. Phase 1 of the innovation center is slated for completion in the second quarter of 2026. This will be followed by the completion of the front-end engineering and design (FEED) for the first commercial plastics-to-fuels plant in the third quarter.

If all goes to plan, Abundia expects to make a Final Investment Decision (FID) and commence construction on the commercial facility before the end of 2026. The modular plant, with an initial target capacity of 80,000 tons per year, is projected to begin commercial production and generate revenue by 2029. The company is also in the process of acquiring Houston-based RPD Technologies, a move expected to bolster its R&D capabilities and accelerate its expansion strategy, with RPD's operations being co-located at the Cedar Port hub.

This transformation of a plot of land on the Gulf Coast into a hub for advanced recycling and renewable fuel production symbolizes the broader energy transition. By building its future in the shadow of legacy energy infrastructure, Abundia is making a powerful statement about the evolution of the Texas energy landscape, moving from a history of extracting resources to one of creating value from waste.
