The biogas plant at Gundebølsvej, Hemmet, was built in 2012 by the Danish company Combigas that design, develop and support biogas solutions.
The plant was built in order to demonstrate a medium size standardized decentralized farm biogas plant appropriate for realizing the municipality, Ringkøbing-Skjern’s Energy plan. In the plan the municipality set high goals for the utilization of biogas from manure from its many life stock producers. In addition Combigas wanted to demonstrate the use of heat pumps for heating the digesters, a semi-automatic management software and a new biomass intake system for mixing of solid biomasses with pig slurry.
