The Group Albioma, an independent renewable energy producer engaged in the energy transition through biomass, photovoltaic, and geothermy, established in Metropolitan France, Overseas France, Mauritius, Brazil, and Turkey, has developed a unique partnership with the sugar industry over the last 25 years, for the use and combustion of bagasse, a fibrous residue from sugar cane, which significantly contributes to the energy autonomy of the French Overseas islands, by burning bagasse in their energy thermal plants during six months of the year (coal burning being used for the other six months).
Albioma has now begun a new major project at their thermal Plant of Bois Rouge in La Réunion, which will have a significant impact on the environment by converting their existing boilers from bagasse and coal to fully green energy combustion. This plant, which produces more than 20% of the island’s electrical power, will fully give-up the coal combustion to replace it by biomas
