Spain celebrates Bioenergy Day 30 on Saturday, November 2024. A symbolic date from which, and until the end of the year, bioenergy could cover all the country's energy needs, including electricity, heat and transport.
ENGIE, which will participate in Expobiomasa 2025, has signed an agreement with the multinational Viscofan to install a biomass boiler at its plant in Cáseda, Navarra. The project is a world pioneer as it will use forest biomass and residual cellulose casing for meat products as fuel.
The works to expand the heat transport pipeline network in Ponferrada, which began in June 2024 and are scheduled to be completed in April 2025, will be able to meet the demand of more than 2.800 homes and 43 tertiary buildings and will mean the shutdown of more than 100 fossil fuel chimneys in the city.
The six projects that use biomass to reduce CO2 emissions in energy-intensive industries stand out. They will receive 55 million euros, 57% of the budget allocation. The García-Carrión Winery Group, through BIOTÉRMICA VILLANUEVA (BIOVI), will receive 2,7 million euros to build a biomass plant to generate thermal energy in Gádor, Almería, which will replace natural gas, reducing CO2 emissions in 7.000 tons per year.
Bioenergy Ibérica has carried out the necessary work to increase the steam production capacity of the biomass boiler in Nestlé's chocolate factory in La Penilla de Cayón (Cantabria) by up to 40%. The generation of thermal energy with the biomass boiler allows Nestlé to reduce annual net emissions of CO2 equivalent by 2.850 tons.

The company BERKES (Berkes & Burmeister & Wain Energy - B&B), which participates in Expobiomasa, has announced that it will supply the complete island of biomass boilers for ACCIONA Energy's EXTREMADURA I-LOGROSAN power plant project. ACCIONA Energy is one of the winners of the third renewable energy auction, which took place on October 25, 2022. The biomass plant to be built will have 49,9 MW and is located in the municipality of Logrosán, in Cáceres.
The company QUEBINEX from Cáceres, which participated in Expobiomasa 2023, has facilitated a strategic change in energy technology in many bakeries in Extremadura, replacing diesel burners with biomass ones, which the same company designs, builds and installs.
34,6 million euros have been awarded to a total of 23 projects for heating and cold networks with renewable energy, which will be launched in six autonomous communities: Aragón (1), Castilla-La Mancha (6), Castilla y León (8), Catalonia (6), Galicia (1) and Principality of Asturias (1). The Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving, a body under the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge, published on April 4 the provisional resolution of the call for this line of aid.
Organized by Inseltrade and Avebiom as an informative action of what companies from Finland will present at Expobiomasa, on 9.10.11 MAY at the Valladolid Fair.
In June a trip to Finland will be organized to learn about the solutions and supplier companies, for example, for renewable energies. Participants will be able to visit supplier factories and renewable energy plants. During the trip the participants will visit the city of Mikkeli, its surroundings and Helsinki, the capital city of Finland. The dates will be from September 18 to 22 (new dates).
