AJ Bush G4 Bioenergy Project (Revoked)

The AJ Bush G4 Bioenergy Project (Revoked) is a wastewater treatment and bioenergy project located at the AJ Bush & Sons rendering facility in Bromelton, approximately 5 kilometers east of Beaudesert in Southeast Queensland. Registered in March 2017, the project was designed to operate within the Scenic Rim region, an area characterized by a mix of heavy industrial land use (specifically meat processing and rendering) and surrounding rural grazing properties.

The project operated under the Domestic, Commercial and Industrial Wastewater methodology. This method credits the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions achieved by capturing methane generated from the anaerobic treatment of wastewater. Instead of allowing methane to vent into the atmosphere from open deep lagoons, the project involved installing covered anaerobic digesters. The captured biogas was then combusted using a boiler, internal combustion engine, or flaring device to generate renewable energy and heat for the facility.

The "G4" in the project name likely refers to a specific generator expansion or upgrade (Generator 4) undertaken during the site's management by ReNu Energy. The project was revoked in March 2020. The current listed proponent, Janus Electric Holdings Limited, is the result of a corporate restructuring; ReNu Energy Limited acquired Janus Electric and renamed itself in 2025, inheriting the historical registry data of its former assets. Historically, the bioenergy assets at this site were sold by ReNu Energy to Resonance Industrial Water Infrastructure Fund in 2018, which may explain the subsequent revocation of this specific project ID. The region typically experiences a subtropical climate with significant rainfall, and the local terrain consists largely of alluvial clay soils common to the Logan River basin.
