ERDF – Energy recovery projects from biomass and organic waste using different processes (Réunion)
The action sheet mentions installations treating in particular the fermentable fraction of household waste, biowaste from separate collection and other organic flows. The beneficiaries listed include companies, local authorities, associations, public bodies and local public companies. Technologies, thresholds, rates and environmental requirements must be checked in the current regional action sheet.
Organic waste and certain biomass residues can become an energy resource, provided there is a collection chain and a suitable process. In Réunion, the ERDF scheme listed targets energy recovery projects from biomass and organic waste. The strength of the application depends on supply, the chosen technology, energy outlets and control of environmental impacts.
