About

Azola is an innovative solution based on a patented process that aims to store the surplus production from biomethane injection plants under liquid form during periods of low demand. Azola allows biomethane producers to store up to 12 000 Nm3 of biomethane under liquid form, for a later re-injection in the grid. In fact, when congestion occurs in the natural gas distribution network during the weekends, summer, or when a producer reaches his maximum contractual injection rate, or during maintenance work, biomethane is flared in order to ramp down the pressure levels within the distribution grid, or to avoid penalties due to excess production.
