| Fort Hill Farms Digester will Produce Renewable Energy from Food Waste  Earlier this year, ground was broken at Fort Hill Farms in Thompson to begin the construction of Connecticut’s first biogas dairy digester system that will recycle food waste and manure into renewable energy and soil products. The project is moving forward thanks to a partnership between the farm, Live Oak Bank, the Connecticut Green Bank, and Ag-Grid Energy. When completed, the digester is expected to produce 550 kilowatts of electricity and reduce 25,000 tons of organic waste annually. | Biofuels | Neste Invests in AFS Fuel Storage Company  Neste, the world’s leading provider of renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel, has acquired a minority stake in Aircraft Fuel Supply B.V.

The operator of the €11million project, which was rolled out by Weltec and its project partner Agripower France, is Agrigaz Vire, a local company that comprises 40 operations along the agricultural value chain. The plant has created three permanent jobs and digests a yearly amount of about 70,000 t of substrates to biogas, which is then processed to biomethane. | India
Foundation stone laid for the first pressmud to Compressed Biogas (CBG) project in Karnataka, India Panorama Södra’s Sustainable Biosolutions Miscellaneous | Siemens Energy, Porsche and Partners Advance E-Fuel Development  Siemens Energy, joined by sports car maker Porsche and a lineup of international companies, is developing and implementing a pilot project in Chile that is expected to yield the world’s first integrated, commercial, industrial-scale plant for making synthetic climate-neutral fuels (e-fuels). In the pilot phase, around 130,000 liters of e-fuels will be produced as early as 2022. In two further phases, capacity is then to be increased to about 55 million liters of e-fuels a year by 2024, and around 550 million liters of e-fuels by 2026. Porsche will be the primary customer for the green fuel. Other partners in the project are the energy firm AME and the petroleum company ENAP from Chile and Italian energy company Enel. | Hyundai Motor Company and Ineos to cooperate on hydrogen economy EMEC mobile hydrogen refuelling solution to power aviation world first Agenda European Pellet Conference Hydrogen & P2X 2021 |
