Andion Italy and EGEA New Energy team up to develop Italian bio-LNG projects
In Italy, Andion Italy and EGEA NEW ENERGY S.p.A. announced the joint acquisition of BIOMETHAN GREEN 1 – SOCIETÀ AGRICOLA S.R.L., a fully permitted greenfield agricultural project in Mirandola, located in the province of Modena. BIO-LNG will be produced by processing organic waste, specifically agricultural production waste, using Andion’s proprietary anaerobic digestion technology.
Engineering, procurement and construction of the new facility is expected to commence in early 2023. Both EGEA and Andion have started collaboration with the surrounding communities to secure agricultural feedstock – processed to produce renewable natural gas – to be delivered to the new anaerobic digestion facility.
EGEA and Andion also announced the two companies have signed a framework agreement to jointly develop other projects throughout Italy; a natural partnership as the two companies are world class leaders in the development of anaerobic digestion facilities and production of renewable energy, using a variety of organic feedstocks. EGEA has built and manages five biogas cogeneration plants, for a total installed power of almost 3 MW of electricity, having recently commissioned a plant nearby in Cella Dati, which will provide operational synergy to the facility in Mirandola. Andion’s team has successfully delivered more than 50 complete anaerobic digestion facilities.
