INDEREN was the installation company of the 1 MW biogas plant in Tornagrain, Highland, Scotland (United Kingdom).

In 2016, INDEREN, subcontracted by the engineering company QILA ENERGY and under its supervision, carried out the design, control and construction work on the pipes, valves and instrumentation system of the plant. In addition, we installed all the necessary equipment for the anaerobic digestion process. The biogas plant has a power of 1 MW, and is located in Tornagrain, Highland, Scotland (United Kingdom).

The benefits of biomethanization of the plant in Tornagrain, United Kingdom

  1. This project has gas injection into the natural gas network. After the biogas stage, the gas network is injected.
  2. Thermal energy is also generated, which will be used to achieve the anaerobic digestion and pasteurization process.
  3. They are used as raw material:
    • Sweet potato remains
    • Pork or cow manure
    • Sewage sludge
