Investment and Modernization
Redexis Renovables has launched a €5.5 million project to modernize its biomethane production facility in Almazán, Spain. The goal is to optimize waste treatment processes and increase biogas yield.
Production Capacity
The upgraded facility is expected to generate around 20 GWh of biomethane annually, which is enough to supply power to approximately 3,170 households. The facility is in its final phase of upgrades and aims to start injecting biomethane into the local gas grid by December 2024.
Regional Impact
Over the past decade, Redexis has invested about €60 million in developing gas infrastructure in Castilla y León. This has resulted in a network spanning over 1,200 kilometers and serving 190,000 residents. The Almazán project aligns with the company's strategy to stimulate rural economic growth.
Environmental Benefits
By recovering methane from agricultural residues, the biomethane production initiative significantly contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and optimizing waste management. Redexis is also exploring advancements in biogas and higher ethanol blends in automotive fuels to further environmental sustainability.
