A province of Spain has a desert in which a new one will be produced energy. It becomes an energetic oasis. The Spanish territory is committed to the global goals of energy transition and decarbonization, and that is why we have already witnessed an engine that we have never seen before. In fact, more than 50% of everything energy generated in Spain in 2023 it was renewable.
Spain heads the production of energy renewable, especially in what has to do with the energy solar energy (it is the third country in the world in terms of production per capita) and wind energy (ranked seventh worldwide).
Under these circumstances, Spain is committed to the transition to a more sustainable future with a province that will soon become an energy oasis.
This desert in Spain will produce new energy
The project is progressing Nascaran ‘energy oasis’ located in the desert of Almeria. This is a future factory that will produce e-methanol from green hydrogen and CO2. This project bears the seal of the Almeria company Inde Ctaer and aims to develop an authentic ‘energy oasis’ in the heart of the desert Taverns.
The first phase has now been completed. To date, feasibility and design studies have been carried out for the establishment of a future e-methanol production plant based on green hydrogen and CO2.
The company released a statement saying this initiative aims to convert the province Almeriaspecifically in the field of Retamaras of Tabernasin the ‘epicenter of a sustainable energy revolution’, with an eye on the fourth quarter of 2026.
The project has received a subsidy of 15 million euros from the central government Institute for Energy Diversification and Conservation (IDAE) and the signing of an agreement with one of the world leaders in engineering and construction in the energy transition sector, Collected techniques. In this context, the first phase of feasibility studies (FEL1) has been successfully completed.
This first technical-economic phase is crucial at the company level to identify the true viability of the business opportunity and prove its solvency. Therefore, the initiative has gained clarity in the definition of the scope, expected performance and implementation strategy, thus exposing Inde Ctaer.
A new energy arrives in Spain: Almería will be the key
The technical partner worked on the comprehensive configuration of the plant and at the same time obtained the necessary documentation to complete the so-called Cetaer Hub. After successfully completing this first part of the project, a second phase will begin to refine the design, known as FEED (Front-end technical design). This new part is the step before the third and final part focused on engineering and construction.
The company of Almeria already ranks among the major multinationals in the energy sector by obtaining the financial support from the funds Next generation EU for the “solidity” of its initiative for the mass production of e-methanol.
The project Nascar has the certificate and additional validation from the consultant FI Group Spain, a leader in R&D&I financing and management. After analysis, FI group coincide con Collected techniques in this business opportunity with a “game-changing” infrastructure. We are talking about more than 36,500 tons of ecological fuel per year, a milestone that aims to be a before and after in maritime transport.
The plant will use energy photovoltaic solar energy in an electrolysis process. By using raw materials (green hydrogen and CO2), the quality of e-methanol, 100% renewable, will be better than what we have now seen from fossil fuels. This province of Spain (Almería) will produce this new one energy which has the experts on edge, as well as the colossal energy bunkers that could reach the area at any moment.
