Here’s the translation to American English:
Schneider Electric and Magnon have established a strategic collaboration to promote sustainable energy solutions. In this context, Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure™ Advanced Process Control (APC) technology has been implemented at Magnon’s biomass plant in Mérida. This initiative signifies a significant step toward a more efficient and environmentally friendly energy model.
The APC technology is based on advanced mathematical models that allow for the real-time prediction and optimization of energy production from biomass. This ability to anticipate and correct deviations in the process by automatically adjusting necessary variables contributes to maximizing efficiency and minimizing unwanted fluctuations. Thanks to these improvements, the plant has experienced a notable increase in efficiency, aligning with Magnon’s sustainability goals and reinforcing its commitment to the decarbonization of the energy sector.
One of the advantages of the APC technology is the reduction of manual interventions, facilitating more precise monitoring of critical variables in the operation of the biomass complex. Javier Figueras, Vice President of Industrial Automation at Schneider Electric Iberia, emphasized the importance of biomass in the transition to a cleaner energy model, which decreases dependence on fossil fuels and promotes a circular economy.
Guillermo Negro, CEO of Magnon, also expressed his enthusiasm for the positive impact of biomass on decarbonization processes and rural development. The company specializes in converting agricultural and forestry waste into clean energy, generating jobs and creating value in local communities. Magnon positions itself as the leading biomass manager in Spain, operating eight plants across various regions of the country with an installed capacity of 266 MW.
Magnon’s commitment to sustainability goes beyond energy production, as it is also actively developing initiatives to capture CO₂ and promote the creation of renewable fuels, thus establishing itself as a key player in the decarbonization of the industry.
