Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), through its CI Advanced Bioenergy Fund I (CI ABF I), has secured a site for a large industrial-scale biogas plant located in Wallonia, Belgium.
Together with Belgian developer Cryo Advise, CIP jointly will develop the biogas plant toward the expected Final Investment Decision by the end of 2023.
The biogas plant will use green sustainable feedstock — agricultural and industrial organic waste — to produce biogas that can either be injected into the existing natural-gas grid or be liquified for use as green fuel for transportation. The plant will recirculate the organic materials as nutrients (fertilizer) for the agriculture production in the region and produce biogen carbon dioxide, which can be used in the production of green ammonia.
The plant will deliver on both the long-term need for energy security and independence, decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors, as well as provide circular solutions to environmental
