A groundbreaking step toward a more sustainable energy future: the new biomass power plant for process steam generation in Lahr will be fueled by oat husks, a raw material derived directly from Rubin Mühle's own production process. Together with MVV Enamic and Rubin Mühle, we are setting another important milestone on the road to a more environmentally friendly and resource-efficient energy supply.
♻️ Circular economy with exemplary impact
🔥 Supply of up to 5 t/h process steam and 3.5 MW thermal power
🌱 Reduction of approximately 4,800 tonnes of CO₂ per year
📈 Safety and reliability guaranteed by KARA plant engineering
The project has officially started, with commissioning planned for 2027 🎯
For Rubin Mühle, this means more independence, higher efficiency, and greater sustainability.
For MVV Enamic, this project is a best-practice example.
“A groundbreaking example of decarbonization and regional circular raw material application,” says Dr. Johannes Werhahn, Managing Director of MVV Enamic.
At KARA, we are proud to leverage our expertise, produce the technology, and actively contribute to the decarbonization of the process industry.
