€15 billion biogas project set for Belarus
Once up and running the 39 plants will generate around 340kW/hr of electricity from biogas produced from biomass, manure, sewage and household waste.
The investment needed to get this large-scale project off the ground is in the region of RUB 580 billion (€15 billion) and will come from public funds, foreign investments and bank loans.
When completed the biogas-to-energy facilities are expected to reduce the county’s reliance on natural gas imports by approximately 145,000 tonnes every year.
