• The Spanish energy company participates in Expoliva 2025, the reference meeting for professionals in the olive sector, and presents its industrial decarbonization solutions focused on energy recovery.
• Agricultural surpluses have great potential for companies such as Avalon Renovables, with a broad portfolio of projects focused on transforming potentially polluting agricultural waste, such as alperujo, into a source of renewable energy.
• Avalon Renovables invites all industry players to explore opportunities for collaboration and synergies to achieve a cleaner and more sustainable energy model.

Madrid, May 16, 2025. Avalon Renovables promotes the energy transformation of the olive grove with industrial decarbonization solutions based on industrial valorization, exhibited at the Expoliva 2025 Fair. The energy company intends to work with different administrations and producers to provide solutions on a local scale and for an industry of great economic impact in Spain, such as oil production.

One of these projects is H2 Alperujo Martos, which uses the olive oil production surplus, alperujo, as an energy source for biogas and biofuel production. This plant represents the opportunity to seek synergies with a leading sector worldwide in olive oil production and with whose collaboration, 5,400,000 Nm3 of biomethane can be generated annually, as well as green methanol, green hydrogen, biogenic CO₂ or ecological compost, among others.

During the informative session held yesterday, Thursday, the technical process of recovery of alperujo and other wastes was presented, through the best possible environmental efficiency and the positive economic and social impact it would generate in the region, as well as the long-term viability of different energy recovery projects.

"We want to make Andalusia the spearhead of industrial decarbonization, sustainability and technology, and for this we need olive partners who want to actively participate in the energy transition," says Rafael Lapique, director of the Operations Department of Avalon Renovables and in charge of the session. "We seek to work closely with farmers, local producers and public bodies in order to develop solutions that reduce the environmental impact of the sector and bring added value to the entire agri-food chain," Lapique added.

Avalon Renovables' energy recovery projects not only allow a more sustainable and efficient waste management, but also open a direct way of participation for cooperatives and mills, which will be able to become key players in the energy and green transition in Andalusia, through a sustainable, competitive and replicable energy solution.

100% Andalusian roadmap
The Spanish energy company, a reference in Andalusia, specialized in the development and construction of large-scale green hydrogen and derivatives projects, has a wide portfolio of projects under development in the region: renewable generation plants, green hydrogen and derivatives for the production of green ammonia, e-methanol and e-SAF, biogas plants, as well as the necessary infrastructure for the transportation, storage and distribution of the final product to the projected delivery points.

Avalon Renovables currently has a project portfolio of more than 3.5 GW in Spain, including one of the most strategically relevant projects for Andalusia, the PBAC project; the Algeciras and Cadiz Bays Project, which contemplates the construction of a dedicated point-to-point hydroproduct that will supply the Bay of Algeciras with green hydrogen for the production of 680,000 tons of green ammonia per year to meet the high demand for sustainable fuels expected in one of the world's busiest port areas, the Bay of Algeciras, where more than 1,000,000 tons of green ammonia per year are expected to be produced.000 tons per year of green ammonia to meet the high demand for sustainable fuels expected in one of the world's busiest port areas, the Bay of Algeciras, where more than 100,000 ships per year pass through for refueling.

In addition, the company is developing a project in Valdepeñas with a production capacity of 27,000 tons of e-SAF per year.
