COUNTRY: CROATIA
ISLAND: Cres-Lošinj
PROJECT PROMOTERS: Active Solera, Komunalne usluge Cres Losinj, NumSMOTechnologie
SECTOR: WASTE
PROJECT VALUE: 9,000,000 €
WHAT IS THE PROJECT ABOUT?
- Within this project, a SMO pilot site will be built on the Croatian Island of Cres, consisting in a fully operational SMO unit and relevant infrastructures.
- SMO is the first energy-autonomous waste processor using exclusively solar thermal energy to transform carbon-based waste into competitively priced Clean Hydrogen, together with Carbon sequestration. Clean hydrogen is then used to generate electricity. The carbonated by-products of the process (carbon powder), will be sold to the tire and rubber industry as a replacement for fossil-based products.
