The first biogas injection station will be delivered in the first quarter of next year.
Under the two-year agreement, the stations will measure the quality of biogas and inject it into GrDF’s natural gas grid after it is processed by the producer through purification stations.
Each station will be equipped with two Elster EnCal 3000 high-end process gas chromatographs, Elster rotary or turbine gas meters, electronic volume correctors and odorizing devices.
Elster will assemble all of the biogas stations in France.
To enable use of this renewable energy source, the source biogas first needs to be cleaned and transformed into biomethane, which has the same quality and energy characteristics as natural gas.
The Elster stations will allow GrDF to assure the precise volume and quality of biomethane it injects into the grid.
