Haffner Energy and Bambbco sign partnership based on improving availability of biomass for energy applications

Haffner Energy has partnered with Bambbco, a prominent bamboo supplier in France, to enhance the availability of biomass for energy applications, particularly from crops cultivated on marginal lands, reported Bioenergy Insight.

As per media report, Haffner Energy has introduced a patented thermolysis technology for biomass and organic waste, leveraging 30 years of expertise. This innovative process produces renewable hydrogen and clean fuels for industrial and mobility uses, while also generating biocarbon (char or biochar) and biogenic CO2.

Bambbco focuses on nature-based solutions, utilizing various bamboo species to generate renewable energy, sequester carbon, combat soil erosion, restore the water cycle, promote biodiversity, and support a biomass-to-energy circular economy. The company is recognized as a laureate of France’s start-up booster program, French Tech.

According to the partners, bamboo can yield up to four times more biomass than wood residues from forests under optimal conditions. It also boasts several beneficial traits, including drought resistance, the absence of chemical input requirements, and the ability to absorb heavy metals and toxic elements through its root system. These qualities make bamboo an excellent candidate for regenerating marginal lands and ecosystems while creating economic value.

Pierre-Alexandre Lemarquis, CEO of Bambbco, remarked, “Europe is the only continent yet to fully recognize bamboo’s benefits, from revitalizing marginal lands and ecosystems to offering a sustainable and competitive alternative to wood for various applications. I am thrilled about Haffner Energy’s progressive approach to biomass procurement. Together, we can create local, circular economy ecosystems for clean fuel production.”

Marcella Franchi, Haffner Energy’s Chief Marketing Officer and Head of Sales, expressed enthusiasm about collaborating with Bambbco to develop biomass-to-energy projects in previously unsuitable locations. “Barren lands can be revitalized with robust energy crops using our technology,” she stated. “We look forward to showcasing the new bamboo plantation at our center in Marolles (Marne County, France). The bamboo will serve as a feedstock for renewable syngas and hydrogen production while enhancing the site’s aesthetics.”
