New order for Alfa Laval to unlock potential of biofuels in aviation
Alfa Laval has secured two contracts worth 350 million SEK to supply HVO pre-treatment technology to Europe's largest biofuel facility. The facility, a joint venture between Cepsa Bioenergia San Roque and Bio-Oils Energy, will produce 500,000 tonnes of sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel annually. The plant, located in Huelva, Spain, represents a 1.2-billion-euro project and is designed to emit 75% less CO2 than traditional biofuel plants. Expected to be operational in 2026, this expansion will double CBSR's total renewable fuels production capacity to one million tonnes yearly.
Alfa Laval ha ottenuto due contratti del valore di 350 milioni di SEK per fornire tecnologia di pre-trattamento HVO alla più grande struttura di biocarburanti d'Europa. L'impianto, una joint venture tra Cepsa Bioenergia San Roque e Bio-Oils Energy, produrrà annualmente 500.000 tonnellate di carburante per aviazione sostenibile e diesel rinnovabile. Situato a Huelva, in Spagna, il progetto vale 1,2 miliardi di euro ed è progettato per emettere il 75% di CO2 in meno rispetto agli impianti di biocarburanti tradizionali. Si prevede che diventi operativo nel 2026, e questa espansione raddoppierà la capacità totale di produzione di combustibili rinnovabili di CBSR a un milione di tonnellate all'anno.

La planta, una empresa conjunta entre Cepsa Bioenergia San Roque y Bio-Oils Energy, producirá anualmente 500.000 toneladas de combustible de aviación sostenible y diésel renovable. Ubicado en Huelva, España, este proyecto de 1.200 millones de euros está diseñado para emitir un 75% menos de CO2 en comparación con las plantas de biocombustibles tradicionales. Se espera que esté operativo en 2026, y esta expansión duplicará la capacidad total de producción de combustibles renovables de CBSR a un millón de toneladas al año.
알파 라발은 유럽 최대의 바이오 연료 시설에 HVO 전처리 기술을 공급하기 위해 3억 5천만 SEK 규모의 두 계약을 체결했습니다. 이 시설은 Cepsa Bioenergia San Roque와 Bio-Oils Energy의 합작 투자로 연간 50만 톤의 지속 가능한 항공 연료와 재생 가능 디젤을 생산할 것입니다. 스페인 우엘바에 위치한 이 공장은 12억 유로 규모의 프로젝트로, 기존 바이오 연료 공장보다 CO2를 75% 덜 배출하도록 설계되었습니다. 2026년 가동될 것으로 예상되며, 이번 확장을 통해 CBSR의 전체 재생 가능 연료 생산 능력이 연간 100만 톤으로 두 배 증가할 것입니다.

Cette installation, une coentreprise entre Cepsa Bioenergia San Roque et Bio-Oils Energy, produira annuellement 500 000 tonnes de carburant d'aviation durable et de diesel renouvelable. L'usine, située à Huelva, en Espagne, représente un projet de 1,2 milliard d'euros et est conçue pour émettre 75 % de CO2 en moins que les installations traditionnelles de biocarburants. Prévue pour être opérationnelle en 2026, cette expansion doublera la capacité de production totale de combustibles renouvelables de CBSR à un million de tonnes par an.
Alfa Laval hat zwei Verträge im Wert von 350 Millionen SEK gesichert, um HVO-Vorbehandlungstechnologie an die größte Biokraftstoffanlage Europas zu liefern. Diese Anlage, ein Gemeinschaftsunternehmen zwischen Cepsa Bioenergia San Roque und Bio-Oils Energy, wird jährlich 500.000 Tonnen nachhaltigen Flugkraftstoff und erneuerbaren Diesel produzieren. Das Werk, das sich in Huelva, Spanien, befindet, stellt ein Projekt im Wert von 1,2 Milliarden Euro dar und ist so konzipiert, dass es 75% weniger CO2 ausstößt als herkömmliche Biokraftstoffanlagen. Es wird erwartet, dass es 2026 in Betrieb geht, und diese Erweiterung wird die gesamte Produktionskapazität von CBSR für erneuerbare Kraftstoffe auf jährlich eine Million Tonnen verdoppeln.

Biofuels are crucial in the decarbonization of our societies, providing a low-carbon solution for existing technologies. In the transportation sector, they play a significant role in the shift towards net-zero emissions. However, the current demand for biofuels far exceeds the available supply, highlighting the need for increased production and innovation to meet this growing need.
"The biggest challenge in the biofuel industry is to triple the capacity by 2030. The volume increase is essential, and we are excited for Alfa Laval to play an important role in this transition," says Sammy Hulpiau, President, Food & Water Division. "The trust placed in us by CBSR ensures that Alfa Laval significantly contributes to the necessary increase of biofuels in aviation, and the transformation of the entire industry."
