ISOLUX CORSÁN and TECNA will build a bioethanol plant

In line with TECNA´s market diversification and Latin America consolidation policy, TECNA and ISOLUX will build a bioethanol plant. The plant will be located in Meta, Colombia, and is owned by BIOENERGY, whose main shareholder is ECOPETROL.

This project includes a plant for manufacturing bioethanol from sugar cane, with a processing capacity of 2.1 million tons of sugar cane per year, a 40 MV cogeneration power plant from bagasse, or cane residue and other installations for the grinding, distillation and production of vinasse, using raw materials.

This industrial complex will be built in the department of Meta in Colombia, in the municipalities of Puerto López and Puerto Gaitán, a geographical area typically associated with raising livestock that is now being utilized for various types of agricultural production, including sugar cane.
