In 2014, agriKomp introduced agriSelect®, a compact biogas plant designed to generate sustainable energy from organic farm residues. The system was initially launched with a capacity of 75 kWel, utilizing 91% slurry/manure and 9% renewable raw materials and food scraps. Over the past decade, agriSelect® has evolved, offering capacities ranging from 55 to 265 kWel, tailored to meet the diverse needs of agricultural operations.
agriSelect® has undergone continuous development, incorporating innovative components such as the Paddelgigant® agitator, Vielfraß® feeding technology, Biolene® gas storage, and the Formprotect® container construction system. These enhancements have improved efficiency and adaptability, allowing the system to operate solely on slurry, manure, or a combination of organic residues.
The system is now available in three variants: Variant 55–100 kWel, Variant 100–150 kWel, and Variant 150–265 kWel. These options provide flexibility to suit various farm sizes and energy requirements.
With over 200 installations across Europe, agriSelect® contributes more than 20,000 kWh of renewable energy annually, equating to approximately 110,000 tons of CO₂ savings per year. A single 75 kW system can supply electricity to an average of 156 four-person households, demonstrating the significant positive impact on both the environment and local communities.
Operators have praised agriSelect® for its reliability and ease of use. For instance, Josef Wutz, who installed a 75 kW system running purely on slurry and manure, commended the smooth and courteous cooperation with agriKomp throughout the planning and construction phases. Similarly, Frank Barthelmess highlighted the system’s robust agitator, which effectively handles straw, manure, and grass, ensuring efficient fermentation.
As agriKomp celebrates this milestone, the company remains committed to innovation and sustainability. The continued success of agriSelect® reflects a decade of dedication to providing efficient, eco-friendly energy solutions for the agricultural sector. Moving forward, agriKomp aims to expand its reach, fostering a greener future through sustainable energy practices.
