Nedgia (Naturgy Group) commissions its first Reverse-Flow station in Spain to absorb the RNG production of Waga Energy and PreZero

 

The installation will enable the WAGABOX unit at the Can Mata (Barcelona) landfill to function at full capacity and inject up to 240,000 MMBtu (70 GWh) of renewable gas into the network per year, equivalent to the consumption of 14,000 households or 200 trucks.

 

Nedgia, a Naturgy Group gas distributor, has commissioned its first Reverse-Flow station in Capellades, near Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain), to inject into the network all the Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) produced by the WAGABOX unit installed on the Can Mata landfill in the municipality of Els Hostalets de Pierola. This Reverse-Flow installation is key to obtain the maximum potential of the RNG injection capacity by allowing the transportation of the renewable natural gas to the high-pressure transportation network.

 

On June 20, 2023, PreZero Spain, one of the leading companies in the environmental sector specialized in the provision of urban services and the development of circular economy solutions, and Waga Energy, a global expert in the production of RNG from landfills, launched an innovative RNG production unit at the Can Mata landfill. Thanks to the WAGABOX technology, developed and patented by Waga Energy, this installation recovers the biogas emitted by landfilled waste in the form of RNG, a renewable substitute for fossil-based natural gas that is set to play a crucial role in the energy transition.
