Through a joint venture, recycling and energy companies will invest BRL 70 million in a plant to produce biogas and biomethane from organic waste from food and consumer goods industries in São Paulo.
The partnership brings together the Crivellaro Group, which recycles industrial waste, and Geo Biogás & Tech, which transforms organic waste into fuel and clean electricity.
The project’s production capacity is 15,000 cubic meters of biomethane per day, with the generation of 11,000 megawatts of electricity as of 2023.
The unit will be built in the municipality of Elias Fausto, in the region of Campinas (SP), and should start operating in 2023.
