Griesheim is a rural area in central Germany, and planned to use the waste heat from a biogas plant to supply scattered farms, removed far away from the village. Efficiency over such long distances was a crucial challenge.
In Griesheim, the waste heat from the biogas plant is used to supply 9 farms which are far away from the village, and far away from each other. This project was subsidized by the county Hessen to enhance the use of clean, sustainable energy.
