Huelva

Huelva Energy Complex

Magnon’s complex in Huelva, which predominantly uses agroforestry biomass certified under SURE standards, consists of two plants with a combined installed capacity of 125 MW. It is the largest biomass-based power generation centre in the country and one of the most advanced in Europe, capable of producing more than 800 GWh of renewable electricity per year through the valorisation of over 800,000 tonnes of local agroforestry biomass.

The plant utilises locally sourced biomass from agricultural crops such as olive groves, vineyards, fruit trees and almond trees—including firewood, prunings, leaves and by-products such as orujo (olive pomace)—together with forest biomass such as eucalyptus, pine, scrub, rockrose and mixed forest residues, as well as sawmill and cork by-products.

The facility holds SURE certification.

Mérida

Mérida Plant

Magnon’s plant in Mérida has an installed capacity of 20 MW and is a benchmark for operational efficiency and environmental commitment. It is capable of producing 160 GWh/year of renewable electricity from approximately 200,000 tonnes of sustainable biomass, making a significant contribution to clean power generation in Extremadura.

The plant utilises locally sourced biomass from agricultural crops such as olive groves, vineyards and fruit trees, together with forest biomass such as eucalyptus, pine and mixed forest residues, derived from woodland management and the surrounding agroforestry environment.

The facility holds SURE certification.

Ciudad Real

Enemansa biomass power generation plant

The Enemansa plant, located in Ciudad Real, has an installed capacity of 16 MW and is capable of producing more than 100 GWh per year, sufficient to meet the electricity needs of nearly 30,000* households.

The facility specialises in the energy recovery of olive pomace generated by local olive oil mills. This by-product of the olive sector is a clear example of the circular bioeconomy, as it efficiently and sustainably converts agricultural residues into renewable electricity.

The facility holds SURE certification.

Ciudad Real

Puertollano biomass power generation plant

Known as Biollano 50 MW, capable of producing more than 325 GWh of renewable electricity per year—enough to meet the energy needs of nearly 100,000* households—it is one of the clearest symbols of the energy transition in Spain. Built on the site of the former Elcogás coal-fired power plant, it represents the conversion of a fossil fuel facility into a benchmark for renewable biomass energy.

Its activity is based on locally sourced agroforestry biomass, managed under sustainability and certification criteria.

The plant utilises locally sourced biomass from a diverse agricultural and forestry environment, including residues from olive groves, vineyards and fruit trees, together with forest biomass such as pine, eucalyptus and mixed forest residues, as well as sawmill by-products.

The plant, which uses biomass certified under SURE standards in compliance with the Renewable Energy Directive, is designed to capture 790,000 tonnes of renewable methanol, contributing directly to Spain’s and the EU’s climate objectives.

Jaén

La Loma Plant

The La Loma plant, located in Villanueva del Arzobispo (Jaén), has an installed capacity of 16 MW and generates more than 90 GWh of renewable electricity per year, sufficient to supply nearly 30,000* households.

The facility holds SURE certification and specialises in the valorisation of Jaén’s olive groves, one of the most representative crops in Andalusia. It also valorizes firewood, prunings, leaves, and by-products of the olive oil production process, such as olive pomace.

Córdoba

Lucena Plant

The Lucena plant, in the province of Córdoba, has an installed capacity of 27 MW and specialises in the energy recovery of olive-derived biomass, mainly orujillo and pruning residues. It can reach a net production of 197 GWh of renewable electricity, sufficient to supply nearly 60,000* households and making a decisive contribution to the region’s clean electricity supply.

The plant utilises locally sourced biomass from agricultural crops such as olive groves and fruit trees, including firewood, prunings, leaves and by-products, particularly from the olive oil production process, such as orujo (olive pomace).

The facility holds SURE certification.
