EverGen Infrastructure Corp. (“EverGen” or the “Company”) (TSXV: EVGN), a leading Canadian renewable natural gas (RNG) infrastructure platform, has announced the appointment of Maria O’Sullivan as Interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective immediately. She replaces outgoing CFO Sean Hennessy, who has officially stepped down from his position as of the same date.
In a statement addressing the transition, Chase Edgelow, Chief Executive Officer of EverGen, expressed gratitude for Mr. Hennessy’s service:
“On behalf of the Board of Directors and the entire EverGen team, I want to extend our sincere thanks to Sean for his leadership, hard work, and commitment to building EverGen’s foundation as a prominent RNG infrastructure platform. His efforts were instrumental in guiding the company through key phases of growth and a transformative recent transaction. We wish him the very best in his future pursuits.”
With a solid foundation already established, EverGen is now looking ahead with confidence, as it brings in a seasoned financial leader to help steer the company through its next growth phase. Maria O’Sullivan, a Chartered Accountant, has been with EverGen and already plays a significant role in the organization’s financial operations. Her promotion to Interim CFO is a strategic decision aimed at maintaining operational continuity and enhancing financial oversight as the company continues scaling its operations.
O’Sullivan’s professional background includes over 12 years of experience in finance and accounting, with a concentration in the energy and infrastructure sectors. She began her career with KPMG in Ireland, where she earned her Chartered Accountant designation. Following her move to Canada, she expanded her experience in financial reporting for publicly traded companies across both the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX), working under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).
Maria holds a Bachelor of Commerce and French degree from the University of Galway and a Master of Accounting from University College Dublin. Her educational and professional experience makes her uniquely equipped to oversee EverGen’s financial operations, manage regulatory compliance, and support capital markets activities as the company continues expanding across Canada.
Chase Edgelow added:
“Maria has been an integral part of the Company since she joined and has consistently demonstrated a high level of financial expertise and industry insight. Her leadership and institutional knowledge will be vital during this transitional period. We’re confident that Maria will ensure stability and continued momentum as we advance our strategy and scale our renewable energy platform nationwide.”
The appointment comes at a critical moment for EverGen as it continues to evolve its infrastructure footprint in the renewable energy space. With key RNG projects underway and recent successful transactions strengthening the company’s platform, strong financial leadership is essential to maintaining investor confidence and operational excellence.
EverGen, often referred to as Canada’s RNG infrastructure platform, was founded with the mission to acquire, develop, and operate RNG and waste-to-energy projects that contribute to a more sustainable energy future. The company has developed a diversified portfolio of RNG infrastructure assets and continues to explore opportunities that align with its long-term strategic goals of decarbonizing Canada’s energy grid.
This leadership transition aligns with EverGen’s growth ambitions and reflects a broader commitment to bolstering its executive team to support ongoing project execution, capital deployment, and expansion into new markets. With several RNG facilities already in operation or development, the company aims to continue delivering reliable, clean energy solutions while driving long-term shareholder value.
The announcement of O’Sullivan’s appointment has been met positively within the company, reflecting both her deep understanding of EverGen’s mission and her demonstrated ability to lead complex financial functions. Her collaborative approach and clear grasp of the challenges and opportunities in Canada’s clean energy sector position her well to assume this pivotal role.
As EverGen looks to the future, it remains focused on maintaining its leadership position in the RNG space. The company plans to continue leveraging its project pipeline, industry partnerships, and operational expertise to expand its market presence and deliver on its commitment to sustainable energy infrastructure.
