Sustainable Innovation Encina’s history of pioneering waste-to-energy solutions, including cogeneration, heat drying, and beer waste-powered generation, signals strong potential for advanced energy recovery, renewable resource partnerships, and equipment/services that enhance efficiency and green credentials.

Strategic Partnerships As a public joint powers authority serving six member agencies with a large service area, Encina presents opportunities for multi-agency contracts, shared services, digital automation upgrades, and OT/SCADA integration through a single award or alliance model.

Digital & OT Modernization Recent news that Tetra Tech was selected to deliver digital automation and OT network solutions for the CLEAR project indicates a likely avenue for consulting, system integration, and cybersecurity or IIoT modernization services to enhance operations and resilience.

Sizable Impact Programs Encina’s involvement in renewable energy initiatives, biosolids management, and PureGreen fertilizer production suggests upsell opportunities in ancillary markets such as sustainable agriculture inputs, nutrient recovery, and green product commercialization.

Financial & Scale With a revenue range of 25 to 50 million and a staff size over 50, Encina represents a mid-market utility customer with potential cross-sell for maintenance services, equipment upgrades, energy efficiency programs, and long-term service contracts across its service area.
