Repowered biogas plant in Vyškov, Czech Republic
Reconstruction of an existing biogas plant
The existing biogas plant in Vyškov, Czech Republic, has been rebuilt to expand capacity. Before, the plant processed 12,000 tons of waste per year. After, the plant can process up to 30,000 tons of waste per year. EFG significantly increases their sustainability through anaerobic digestion and membrane biogas upgrading technology. The generated biomethane is distributed through GasNet Group, a gas distribution network in the Czech Republic.
Renewed biogas plant for EFG in Vyškov, Czech Republic
The plant can now process biogas into biomethane for almost 2,000 households a year or bio-CNG for more than 2,200 cars with an annual mileage of almost 45 million kilometres. The plant processes biodegradable waste, which would otherwise end up in landfills, and is used to produce biomethane, electricity and heat. This contributes not only to environmental protection but also to the Czech Republic’s energy independence.
