RGC to connect first biomethane plant to networks in mid-2022 – strategic director
KYIV. Oct 29 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The Regional Gas Company (RGC) plans to connect the first biomethane plant to gas distribution networks in the middle of next year, after the heating season, Director of RGC Strategic Planning Department Stanislav Kazda said in a commentary to the Green Deal portal on the sidelines of the Ukrainian Gas Forum.
"We want to be ready to connect the plant by the middle of next year. We do not yet know which biomethane plant to choose out of the ten considered. There are a lot of technical issues and financial constraints, but I am sure that at least one of them we can connect. Technically, this is possible after the end of the heating season," Kazda said.
As reported, in May, the Regional Gas Company (RGC) and the Bioenergy Association of Ukraine (BAU) signed a memorandum of understanding and cooperation to synchronize the processes of redesigning gas distribution infrastructure and biomethane production. In August, gas distribution network operators operating under the RGC brand in three regions received proposals and technical parameters from BAU for connecting biomethane plants to gas distribution networks as part of a pilot project.
