Biogas is a major source of renewable energy. Unlike wind and solar power, biogas can be produced on a predictable basis from replenishable, locally available waste and residues. This enables the reliable production of electricity, heat, gas or vehicle fuels – renewable resources that are crucial to the global energy transition.
Kanadevia Inova Schmack has more than 25 years of experience in constructing, maintaining, operating and optimising biogas plants. In addition to turn-key construction, including project development, permit planning and commissioning finished plants, Kanadevia Inova Schmack’s offering extends to technical and biological services for economical long-term operation.
Kanadevia Inova Schmack also offers power-to-gas solutions for producing additional green gases such as hydrogen and synthetic methane with BiON® biological methanation technology.
Besides new builds, Kanadevia Inova Schmack can provide comprehensive solutions around your biogas plant:
Whether you’re seeking to utilise residues sustainably, diversify your agricultural business, generate energy in combination with heat, upgrade gas for feed-in to the grid or generate fuel, Kanadevia Inova Schmack can supply a turnkey concept for your plant – also independently of the Germany Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG).
