EemsGas receives €30 million investment subsidy for major green gas project in the Netherlands
EemsGas – one of the largest green gas production facilities in the Netherlands with an investment of €100 million – has received €30 million in DEI+ investment subsidies from the Dutch government. Sustainable raw materials producer Perpetual Next, which holds a 50% stake in EemsGas, announced this today. The subsidy will be used for the construction of a plant that produces green gas from scrap wood. The subsidy award – almost a third of the total investment – is the result of a technical and economic evaluation of the project, its contribution to the energy transition, and the financial commitment of the shareholders. The EemsGas project aligns seamlessly with the recommendations of the Wennink Report on public investments in energy and climate technology, published in December.
Collaboration with TNO. For the Netherlands, the new plant represents an opportunity to substantially scale up green gas production, based on the gasification of demolition wood and a blueprint that can be applied at other locations in the Netherlands and beyond. Eemsgas partnered with TNO (Dutch Organization for Applied Scientific Research) for the project, which is supplying gasification technology for the plant. The plant, featuring leading-edge technology, will produce 18 million cubic meters of green gas per year, many times the production volumes of conventional green gas production facilities.
