Construction of bioenergy plant in Harderwijk is unique collaboration

In an unique public-private partnership between The Vallei and Veluwe Regional Water Authority and manure transport company Jan Bakker HoSt will build a biogas plant and a biogas upgrading system.

The bioenergy plant is called ‘Bio-energiecentrale Harderwijk’ and will produce approximately 12.5 million Nm³ biogas annually which will be upgraded in the Bright Biomethane system to 8 million Nm³ biomethane annually. The biomethane will be injected into the national gas grid and is equivalent to the natural gas consumption of more than 5,000 households.

CO₂-recovery

The bioenergy plant will produce three products: biomethane, digestate and CO₂. The CO₂ will be supplied to a neighbouring brick factory. This way, the plant will make a positive contribution to the climate change, by capturing the CO₂.
