Raven SR Waste-to-Hydrogen Project Gains Regional Interest in Spain
Key Ideas
  • Raven SR's waste-to-hydrogen project in Spain's Aragón region has been declared a project of regional autonomous interest, showcasing the importance of sustainable initiatives.
  • The facility, expected to be operational by 2026, will produce 75 kg of transport-grade hydrogen for each ton of organic waste, significantly contributing to reducing landfill and transportation emissions.
  • Supported by grants from the European Commission and the Spanish Ministry for Ecological Transition, Raven SR's technology offers an efficient, low-carbon method of hydrogen production and synthetic fuel generation from local waste sources.
  • The project's modular design aims to locally produce renewable hydrogen and liquid synthetic fuels, aligning with the commitment to sustainable and innovative technologies in the region.
Raven SR has received recognition for its waste-to-hydrogen production facility planned for Zaragoza, Spain, as it has been designated 'A Project and Investment of Regional Autonomous Interest' by the Regional Ministry of Presidency, Economy and Justice of the Government of Aragón. This distinction signifies the project's special relevance for economic, social, and territorial development in Aragón, providing accelerated administrative processes. The facility, set to be the first of its kind in Europe, is anticipated to commence operations by 2026, producing 75 kg of transport-grade hydrogen for each ton of organic waste, resulting in approximately 5,250 kg per day and 1.8 million kg annually. Matt Murdock, CEO of Raven SR, expressed gratitude for the government's trust and highlighted the positive impact the project will have on sustainable and innovative technologies in the region. Raven SR's technology utilizes a non-combustion thermal, chemical reductive process to convert organic waste and landfill gas into hydrogen and synthetic fuels efficiently. The company's approach requires minimal energy and does not rely on fresh water, offering a more sustainable alternative to conventional hydrogen production. With support from the European Commission and Spanish Ministry, Raven SR aims to establish a self-sufficient operation, reducing reliance on the grid. The project aligns with the European Union's initiatives for Hydrogen Valleys and illustrates a commitment to green technology and waste-to-energy solutions.
