The main advantage of biogas is its potential to decarbonise demand, which is often linked to thermal uses in industry and is difficult to decarbonise with other renewable sources. CH4T is positioned as a key player in the transition to renewable fuels, contributing significantly to the reduction of CO2 emissions, fostering the local economy, and strengthening the agricultural sector through the valorisation of agricultural waste.

This investment contributes to the benefit of society through the reduction of CO2 emissions, reducing the negative effects on the environment, through a sustainable management of agricultural waste in the territory. It also reduces dependence on fossil fuels, which is an advantage for natural gas consumers, thus helping them in the transition to the use of energy from renewable sources. This investment also boosts the local economy, in particular the agricultural sector, which will make it possible to valorise its organic waste. In addition, the communities of the territory will benefit from job creation and economic growth.

The project foresees an annual reduction of approximately 80,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions and a production of more than ~300,000 MWh/year of biomethane. By processing ~400,000 tonnes of organic waste annually, it will not only generate biomethane, but also mitigate the environmental impact associated with the application of this waste without first being directly stabilised in the field. The decarbonisation of sectors that are difficult to electrify, the promotion of rural employment, and the promotion of the circular economy are other benefits provided by CH4T.
