SNG: one key technology for sustainable energy

„Currently, our renewable electricity production is limited during periods of low demand. Instead of shutting off wind and solar plants, we can convert this excess energy into gases that can be stored and used flexibly. By this, we can increase the share of renewable energies in our overall energy supply.”

Tobias Eckhof, Project manager ‚Hydrogen‘ at Krieg & Fischer Ingenieure, evaluates this key technology.

Synthetic natural gas (SNG) is methane produced from carbon oxide and hydrogen. This green and emission-free alternative is produced using the power-to-gas process. It is of natural gas quality and can be used like natural gas or fed into the gas grid. By linking the energy sectors of electricity, heat, mobility and industry (energy sector coupling), synergies are efficiently exploited. This sustainable technology strengthens the economy and contributes to the achievement of climate targets.

From technology consulting and concept development, studies and approval procedures to plant planning and commissioning; Krieg & Fischer Ingenieure GmbH supports both the realization of new power-to-gas plants and the expansion of existing plants with its know-how.

You can learn more about the process and this sustainable technology in the video and on our website. You can also look forward to a technical article with the topic CO2-lequification in Biogas Journal 04-23, which is linked here for publication.
