TotalEnergies on Feb. 26 said the company has commissioned its biomethane production plant in Normandy, France, where it will inject 153 gigawatt hours of biomethane annually into the GRTgaz-operated natural gas network.
The project, called BioNorrois, utilizes beet pulp from French sugar group Cristal Union’s adjacent production site. The 150,000 tons of natural fertilizer produced annually by the anaerobic digester unit will be used by Cristal Union and the Norman cooperative NatUp with partner farms. Both are transitioning to more sustainable and locally produced fertilizers, according to TotalEnergies’ news release.
“With this new plant, which brings our biogas production capacity in the country to more than 800 GWh, TotalEnergies confirms its position as a major player in the market,” said Karine Boissy-Rousseau, vice president of green gases at TotalEnergies. “With Cristal Union, we are partnering long-term with a robust, internationally recognized partner committed to sustainable growth of its activities.”
The installation is expected to help avoid the emission of 30,000 tons of CO2 annually, the release states.
