In 2018, Yokogawa and the Spanish biotech company AlgaEnergy signed a strategic partnership and equity agreement. What is the vision and mission of AlgaEnergy?
Challenges of Agriculture
How can we manage the challenges of the modern world? Just think of climate change, food security, water crisis, just to name a few. Many necessary industries are ambivalent. Even though agriculture is essential to provide food for human beings and animals, it contributes 12% worldwide of all greenhouse gas emissions. By 2050 global food systems will be responsible for feeding more than nine billion people while at the same time natural resources should be protected and climate change must be stopped or at least slowed down.
Farmers are on the one hand facing the increasing challenges of climate change, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. On the other hand, there are small glimmers of hope like agricultural innovations and sustainability. There is an urgent need to address these challenges so that everybody wins: growers, consumers, and the environment.
How AlgaEnergy tackles the agricultural challenges
To enable future generations to have a future worth living on Earth, the world of today must go through significant changes. For AlgaEnergy, the agricultural sector bears such a possibility for change.
AlgaEnergy is a global company with a clear purpose: leading innovative and natural biological-based solutions to the world. Its mission is founded on the principle that bringing these solutions to the market is the foundation of a sustainable future for the planet, contributing to alleviating the three main challenges of society: food security, environmental sustainability, and energy efficiency.
AlgaEnergy’s core technologies are all based on sustainable and renewable properties found in diverse species of single-cell microalgae. By harnessing microalgae technology with other disruptive, innovative, and natural technologies, AlgaEnergy is building a strong international presence to deliver its natural-based solutions and creating sustainable alternatives to cover the whole crop input chain across the globe.
The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) provide a global blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all mankind. AlgaEnergy, through its activity, contributes to 11 of the 17 UN SDGs.
AlgaEnergy: Benefits of Biostimulants
In 2009, our agricultural biostimulants based on microalgae, the world’s first, were launched in Spain, under the trademark AgriAlgae®.
Different species of microalgae, in an optimized proportion depending on their composition, are used for bringing microalgae benefits to the crops in different stages of their development. Nowadays, AlgaEnergy commercializes its microalgae-base solutions in Europe, Asia, America, and Australia, and the microalgae-based product portfolio is made with an optimized combination of essential elements for the individual plant. With its immense biodiversity, we can choose the ideal microalgae species based on the product features desired.
AlgaEnergy biostimulants are certified as one of the 1,000 solutions in the world that contribute to protecting the environment, as well as providing economic profitability to the farmers. So far, AlgaEnergy’s product is the first biostimulant in the world with this certification.
By using biostimulants, you can enhance crops, increase yields, improve water and nutrient uptake. Statistical evidence shows increasing productivity without using more inputs like land or water. So honestly, there is no reason why to not to rely on biological stimulants.

AlgaEnergy: committed to the regeneration of the soils
AlgaEnergy truly believes that we are in the right moment for an important step forward to contribute to a sustainable future. We obtained our nourishment from the planet since the beginning of humanity, and we are now in a time of impoverishment of the soils all over the world. With AlgaEnergy’s solutions for agriculture, they want to contribute to the regeneration of the soils, giving back to the soil what we have taken from them, and contributing to the balance necessary for a sustainable planet.
Through its activity AlgaEnergy contributes directly to 11 of the 17 UN SDGs.

Help farmers to cultivate their yields environmentally friendly
While the scale and scope of the global challenges intensify, AlgaEnergy is working side by side with farmers to understand their needs. We are helping farmers maximize their crop yields and performances in an environmentally friendly manner.
Thanks to the exploitation of the potential offered by microalgae, we make our planet a space for coexistence and more sustainable progress.
Together with a network of more than 130 consortiums worldwide, we are collaborating on innovative projects to develop sustainable solutions to cover needs in different industries.
Be the change, join us!
