Commercial Premises in Castel Volturno

Right of surface of commercial premises at auction in Castel Volturno (CE) – Via Pietro Pagliuca snc The inactive biogas energy plant is located in Castel Volturno (CE), Via Pietro Pagliuca snc, in a rural setting adjacent to a livestock farm. The unit was built on third-party land under a surface rights agreement, valid until 2046. Its strategic location allows the plant to be fed with livestock effluent and agri-food by-products, with biomass moved via underground pipelines and pumps, thus avoiding road transport. Area and Internal Layout The plant has an electrical power output of 100 kW, with a maximum deliverable electrical power of 700 kW. It consists of a single fermenter fed by livestock effluent, collected in a pre-tank. The fermenter is equipped with a gasometer dome for biogas storage. The produced biogas is conveyed to the cogeneration engine for electricity and heat production, following pre-treatment for dehumidification and desulfurization. The digestate is conveyed to storage tanks for reuse as a soil conditioner. The plant includes an internal combustion cogeneration engine in a container, pipelines, pumps, trenches, storage sheds, and an electrical cabin. The plant is approximately 9 years old and is in a condition that requires reactivation costs. Features and Equipment The plant is equipped with a back-up system for loading palpable substance, ensuring a constant supply of biomass. To maximize value and profitability, it is advisable to convert the currently inactive plant from biogas production to biomethane. This conversion involves purification and upgrading processes to obtain gas with a methane content exceeding 95%. New biomethane support schemes are anticipated, including capital contributions (up to 40% of investment and conversion costs) and operating contributions (an incentive tariff for 15 years). Context and Connections The plant is located in a rural area of Castel Volturno, in the province of Caserta, adjacent to a livestock farm, which facilitates biomass supply. The area is characterized by other similar production units, indicating a favorable context for renewable energy activities. The property is free for the procedure and offers an investment opportunity in the renewable energy sector, with significant potential returns upon conversion to biomethane.
