The partnership will jointly develop prototype plants to produce 10 ton/day synthetic EGM fuels using carbon and coal waste in UAE and the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf.
The companies will also develop power plants in Durban, Botswana and Zimbabwe to produce 10 ton/day energy which is expected to be purchased by the various municipalities.
The new joint venture also plans to develop 150kW demonstration plant in Austria to generate power and fuel.
It also plans to develop a prepaid OFF grid system using W2H Luxembourg’s 5-10KW/h W2H generator sets and EGM bio-oil (fuel) to generate electricity.
