New Milestone for the Biogas Plant Extension in Lavigny! 🇨🇭   At Hitachi Zosen Inova we are thrilled to receive the order for the extension of the biogas plant in Lavigny.   After handing over the fully signed contract, we hit the ground running with the first meeting to kick off the construction phase!   The customer, Ecorecyclage SA, part of the HOLDIGAZ SA Group, operates a Kompogas fermenter that was built back in 2007 by CTU (the then-license holder of Kompogas) and commissioned in 2008. Over the past 16 years, our Service HZI team has been fortunate to collaborate with Ecorecyclage on several major projects and upgrades, and we’re excited to now embark on the next chapter—constructing a second digester!   🔜What's next?   Preparatory construction work starts end of September Concrete construction for the digester begins in January 2025 Commissioning is expected by autumn 2025   Let’s build the future of sustainable energy, together!   #Biogas #SustainableEnergy #Kompogas #Teamwork #HZI #ProjectMilestone #RenewableEnergy  

HZI and Schmack Biogas Srl to Deliver Innovative Biogas Technology Solution in Spain 🇪🇸 Schmack Biogas Srl, part of Hitachi Zosen Inova, has been selected by AGR BIOGÁS to deliver its first anaerobic digestion plant in La Calahorra, Spain.   This project is a major milestone for the country, as it will be the first plant of its kind in Spain to utilise Schmack Biogas’s Euco Titan anaerobic digestion technology.   Once operational, the plant will treat 140,000 tonnes of olive pomace and agricultural waste annually, and produce up to 10 million Nm3 of biogas, which will be upgraded by the client to biomethane, contributing to a cleaner energy future.   This is also the first new contract for Schmack Biogas since joining the HZI family, marking the beginning of many more exciting developments in the Spanish renewable gas market.   Construction will begin on 1 October 2024, and the plant is expected to be fully operation in 21 months.   As Daniel Dreier, HZI’s EVP of Waste to X & Renewable Gas Plants, said: "This is the first AD project of its type and will unlock the development of further biogas and biomethane facilities across Spain in the years to come."   ⬇️Click below to learn more about this project⬇️ https://lnkd.in/e4kk9i5P   #biogas #renewableenergy #anaerobicdigestion #circulareconomy #HZI

Exciting changes are ahead and we can't wait to share more with you on 1 October.   #rebranding #newname #HZIbecomesKanadeviaInova

Major milestone in carbon capture technology! As a global leader in Waste-to-Energy solutions, we are proud to have played a key role in the successful launch of the UK’s first carbon capture pilot at enfinium’s Ferrybridge Waste to Energy Plant, in partnership with enfinium. We supplied the technology, a containerised, scaled-down version of the CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) technology that enfinium could deploy across all its sites. This project represents a significant achievement for the UK's carbon capture sector and demonstrates the strength of HZI's cutting-edge technology in enabling large-scale CO₂ reduction. By integrating advanced carbon capture solutions, we are not just contributing to the UK’s #NetZero goals — we are actively shaping a sustainable future. We thank enfinium for the strong collaboration and the dedication of all involved teams in bringing this innovative project to life!

Our director for power-to-gas and renewable hydrogen, Bijan Cour holding a speech this week at the annual 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿-𝘁𝗼-𝗚𝗮𝘀 𝗞𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝘄𝗲𝗶𝘇 by energie-cluster.ch and Stiftung Umwelt Arena Schweiz in Spreitenbach. This year's congress focused on the topics of #energystorage, #electricitysupplysecurity and the role of #PtX technologies in this context. Taking a broader look with a European focus, Bijan presented the role power-to-gas can play in the near future to support a continued growth of renewables. Along with baseload power plants such as waste-to-energy, biogas and nuclear based electricity, renewables are a solution for both a decarbonised grid and a stronger energy security for Europe. While the share of renewables has more than doubled in the last 15 years and now supply more than 40% of the electricity consumed in Europe, the next decade may be much more challenging. Intermittency and the fact that the wind and sun are the same for all the power plants installed in a given region is a challenge for the grid stability, which must balance supply and demand at all times. These lead to increasingly fluctuating power prices, curtailment, and eventually a drop in the profitability of the wind and solar parks, known as "cannibalization". In order to be prepared for this transformation we need to: adapt consumption, develop storage, reinforce the grid or convert electricity through electrolysis and methanation into a gas that can be stored for very long periods in Europe’s existing gas infrastructure. PtG is one of the solutions that we need to launch now. The technology is ready and success requires an integrated approach to optimise energy conversion, waste heat recovery and plant flexibility. We thank all participants for the constructive discussions and interesting insights.🤝 #HitachiZosenInova #energytransition #ptx #ptg

HZI Delivers Slough Multifuel Facility to Client Ahead of Schedule! The Slough Multifuel Facility, a cutting-edge Waste-to-Energy (WtE) plant designed by Hitachi Zosen Inova, has been successfully delivered ahead of schedule! This milestone allows us to hand over the facility to SSE plc and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, marking the beginning of full commercial operations which HZI will lead under a long-term O&M contract. What makes this project stand out? 🔋 Efficient Energy Generation: The facility will treat around 480,000 tonnes of non-recyclable waste annually, generating approximately 60MWe of electrical power for the UK’s National Grid and providing steam to a nearby business, furthering Slough’s circular economy. 🏗️ Challenging Build: The plant’s location in a busy trading estate required precise planning to avoid disruption to near neighbours, and a 'Just in Time' delivery approach was adopted to streamline the construction phases. 🤝 Local Collaboration: This project reflects HZI’s commitment to local supply chains, employment, and collaboration with community stakeholders, ensuring minimal disruption across the 45-month construction period. We’re proud of this success that will power communities and businesses sustainably for years to come. Stay tuned for more updates on our continued work in the UK WtE sector! ⬇️ Read the full Press Release for more details ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eSquZFfV

Retrofitting in Tight Places: HZI to modernise Schwandorf WtE Plant 🇩🇪 HZI has been awarded a significant contract to supply two new high-performance lines to Schwandorf Waste to Energy plant as part of the Triphönix project, substituting 3 existing lines all the while increasing the plant’s capacity. What makes this project special? 🔹 Historic Collaboration: we are replacing 3 original Steinmüller lines, built in 1982, with 2 lines using state-of-the-art technology.   🔹 Boosting Capacity: The new lines will handle 22 tonnes/hour of waste each, increasing the with a combined capacity of approximately 350,000 tonnes/year. Each boiler unit will boast a thermal output of 67.2 MWth, ensuring more efficient energy production.   🔹 Efficiency & Innovation: Our innovative boiler setup, tailored to the limited space, uses special design and cleaning technology to maintain efficient heat transfer and reduce maintenance costs.   The Impact:   This WtE plant is a pivotal plant for the region, treating waste for 1.91 million inhabitants across 17 towns and cities. The upgrade, to be completed by 2031, will ensure continuous waste disposal and energy supply even during construction.   Stay tuned for more updates as we embark on this transformative journey!   ⬇️ Click below to read the related Media Release with more insights into this upgrade⬇️ https://lnkd.in/ekqi_vCC #WasteToEnergy #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #Innovation #Retrofitting
