The investment volume was around 14 million euros. The plant is designed to process 17,000 tons of pig manure, 14,000 tons of turkey manure and 20,000 tons of corn silage annually. This means that the share of manure and liquid manure is just over 60 percent. The annual gas yield is calculated at a good 45 gigawatt hours. 70 percent of the biogas is processed into bio natural gas (350 m³ / h) and fed into the public natural gas network. The remaining third is converted by a combined heat and power unit (CHP) with an output of 600 kilowatts into electricity and heat. While the electricity flows into the network of the local energy supplier, the heat is used to heat the fermenter. The substrates are fermented in two parallel steel fermenters.
