In Milan, MAIRE’s NextChem Tech subsidiary and ENGIE have agreed to co-develop and commercialize an advanced biomethane technology to produce synthetic methane from dry biomass waste.

Under the terms of the agreement, NextChem Tech will act as strategic partner and co-developer to optimize, integrate, develop, and commercialize the process using NEXTCHEM’s and ENGIE’s proprietary technologies. Once industrialized through the Salamandre project in Le Havre, France, NextChem Tech will act globally as licensor of the integrated package on an exclusive basis.

“As this cooperation shows, our commitment to industrializing our technological solutions for the energy transition continues to increase,” said Mohammed Nafid, CEO of NextChem Tech.  “We are proud to consolidate our strategic partnership with ENGIE by supporting its path towards decarbonization and accelerating the achievement of the bio-methane production targets set by the European Union.”
