Retz: New biomass heating work ensures energy-independence!

Retz, Österreich - Biopower GmbH, Austria's largest provider of biogas, is progressing with an impressive project in Retz: From mid-2025, a modern biomass heating plant will be created, which is to secure regional heat supply with an investment volume of almost 3 million euros. Biopower GmbH reported this in a current press release. The system is located near the existing biogas plant and has the potential to supply up to 500 households and public institutions with heat.

The innovative heating plant is intended to use certified forest chopping goods to create low -emission heat and at the same time increase the operating efficiency of the biogas treatment plant. Mayor Stefan Lang emphasizes that this project is not only a step towards energy independence, but also strengthens the attractiveness of Retz as a location for renewable energies, such as is reported on the city of Retz's website . Biopower will revolutionize local energy generation through the combination of heat supply and the feed -in of biomethane into the public gas network.

reliable cooperation for sustainable energy

The coordinated cooperation between Biopower GmbH and EVN WHELLE GmbH plays a crucial role in the success of this project. During the construction phase, which is planned until 2027, investments will continue to be made in the existing biogas preparation system. According to the managing directors of Biopower GmbH, Andreas Blochberger and Robert Schweizer, the heating plant represents an “important milestone” in the regional energy supply. This reduces the dependence on energy imports and the use of renewable resources is optimized, which is expressly supported by the EVN, such as Noen reports .
