Energy recovery

 

Biogas
The raw gas produced in Kompogas plants is treated to natural gas quality and fed into the gas network. As a valuable source of energy, biogas is used for heating, cooking or mobility.
Biogas can be sourced from the local gas supplier. Ask your gas supplier about the corresponding biogas products.

Green electricity
We offer green electricity certificates from Kompogas plants as a product. They fulfil the quality directives of the "naturemade star" label. Communities with the Energiestadt (energy city) label or industrial companies with CO2 target agreements can offset their purchases of Kompogas green electricity. Depending on the product, the certificates cost between 2 and 8 Rp./kWh.

You can purchase green electricity certificates directly from us.

Green heat
We feed recoverable excess process heat into the local heating network. Anybody in the immediate vicinity of a Kompogas plant interested in procuring heat can contact us here.
