In it, representatives of leading renewable energy companies in Spain have analysed current and future strategies to face the challenges of the energy transition, as well as the strengths and resources available to the community.<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The event was opened by Juan Carlos Su\u00e1rez-Qui\u00f1ones<\/strong>, Minister for the Environment, Housing and Territorial Planning of the Regional Government of Castilla y Le\u00f3n, and also included the participation of Jos\u00e9 Manuel Jim\u00e9nez<\/strong>, General Director of Infrastructure and Environmental Sustainability of the Regional Government of Castilla y Le\u00f3n and CEO of SOMACYL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manuel Alonso<\/strong>, General Manager of Biorig, took part in the round table \u201cDevelopment of biomethane in Castilla y Le\u00f3n: Power in Europe and environmental solution\u201d, together with Joan Batalla, President of the Spanish Gas Association (SEDIGAS). During the session, he presented Biorig\u2019s Castilla y Le\u00f3n Plan, with 10 biomethane production facilities and a capacity of nearly 1 TWh of renewable gas. He also highlighted the benefits and opportunities this will bring to the region. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCastilla y Le\u00f3n has a potential of around 37\u201338 terawatt-hours, approximately 23% of the national potential, and nearly 10 points ahead of the second-ranked region, which is Andalusia. Moreover, this potential is divided into two areas: a short-term potential, based on agriculture, livestock farming or municipal solid waste, amounting to around 11\u201312 terawatt-hours and which could be addressed immediately; and a medium-term potential, based on intermediate crops, where much work remains to be done, and which would amount to 18\u201319 terawatt-hours,\u201d said Manuel Alonso. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe 10 plants Biorig is promoting in Castilla y Le\u00f3n focus solely on agricultural and livestock waste, manure, slurry and agricultural residues, and the aim is to be located where the waste is, near the gas pipelines in the region. There is much talk about organic fertilisers and biogenic CO\u2082<\/sub>. In all our plants, we have a biogenic CO\u2082 <\/sub>capture system, an essential element, along with renewable hydrogen, for the production of sustainable fuels such as SAF or green methanol,\u201d Manuel concluded. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

BIORIG, circular economy and energy sustainability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Biorig is the biomethane production division of Solarig. It was created with the aim of providing innovative solutions in the field of renewable gases and CO\u2082 capture. <\/em>CO2<\/sub><\/em>. Its activity focuses on the management of organic waste for its transformation into renewable gases and the promotion of project development within the framework of the energy transition and the circular economy.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
