Biogas transport grids, case study “Province of West-Flanders”

Biogas collection from several digesters to a hub could support the efficient use of renewable energy from biomass. At a hub, generally a larger volume of biogas induce a scale advantage for the end user, e.g. a CHP. For heat and electricity production, a large improvement of overall energy efficiency can be achieved when heat generation and heat demand are matched. In the Belgian province of West-Flanders 38 digesters were identified. The biogas from these digesters is used to produce electricity and heat at or close to the digester site. In case manure is part of the biomass input streams th... Mehr ...
