Powering Australia's Clean Energy Future

Ridout Holdings delivers end-to-end expertise in biomass-to-energy and waste-to-energy projects — from feasibility and consulting through to technology selection and full project delivery.

What we do

End-to-end renewable energy expertise

We partner with councils, industry, and agricultural enterprises to turn organic waste and biomass into reliable, clean energy — from the first conversation to the final commissioning.

Renewable Energy Consulting

Strategic advice grounded in real-world project experience. We assess feasibility, evaluate technology options, and help clients navigate the regulatory and commercial landscape of Australia's renewable energy sector.

Waste-to-Energy

Waste-to-Energy

Transforming municipal solid waste, industrial residues, and organic waste into clean energy through thermal and biological conversion technologies. We help councils and industry divert waste from landfill while generating valuable energy.

Deeply Australian

We understand the regulatory environment, the grid constraints, and the feedstock realities of operating in Australia — not just in theory, but from years of on-the-ground project work.

End-to-end capability

From the first feasibility study to the final commissioning handover, we provide continuity of expertise across every phase — so nothing gets lost in translation between consultants.

Technology-agnostic

We're not tied to any single technology vendor or solution. Our advice is driven by what's right for your project, your feedstock, and your energy goals.
