Engie puts an end to a major renewable gas project in Le Havre

It must have been “ the first global renewable gas production unit based on pyrogasification and methanation technologies for maritime transport », promised Engie, in the summer of 2023. But the factory named Salamandre, which was to be built on the banks of the grand Le Havre canal, will never rise from the ground. Nor will the 11,000 tonnes of low-carbon liquefied gas promised to the fleet of the shipowner CMA CGM (owner of The Tribune), partner of the operation.
