IMO PALM PLANTATION: integrated biogas production from combined waste materials

Reduction of fossil fuel consumption for Imo Palm and industrial energy off-takers; Elec-trifying the surrounding villages through the project operated micro-grid; Reducing the electricity production costs which are based on fossil fuels; Introduction of bio-methane based CNG as transport fuel.

This project involves utilizing selected and pre-treated biomass waste materials to gen-erate biogas energy for the Imo Palm Oil Plantation. Excess energy will be provided to the surrounding villages through a micro-grid as well as to commercial off-takers. The project will also establish electrification to surrounding villages and a bio-methane regional transport capacity.
