We are pleased to announce that we have signed a grant agreement for the project: “Biochar as an Alternative to Fossil-Based Reductants in the Production of High-Grade Silicon Alloys.” We are starting work on an innovative technology that has the potential to revolutionize the metallurgical industry through green ferrosilicon (FeSi75) production.
Our Goal: Climate-Friendly Technology of the Future
In the era of energy transition and growing environmental demands, we are committed to sustainable development and cutting-edge solutions. The aim of the project is to develop an emission-free technology for producing ferrosilicon alloys, replacing fossil-based reductants with climate-neutral bioreductants.
What Will This Project Achieve?
✅ Replace coal and coke with bioreductants that generate no additional CO₂ emissions
✅ Completely eliminate fossil fuels from the production process
✅ Use power from our own 15 MW photovoltaic installation, generating approx. 16,700 MWh of green energy per year
✅ Implement production in modern resistance-arc furnaces for high process efficiency
Key Benefits of the New Technology:
⚙️ Increased daily production capacity
⚡ Significant reduction in electricity consumption
🌱 Major reduction in CO₂ emissions across the entire production cycle
Green FeSi75 – A Response to Market Challenges
Our new product – FeSi75 produced using climate-neutral bioreductants – meets current market needs and aligns with the ambitious goals of European climate policy. It represents not only a technological breakthrough but a tangible step toward the decarbonization of heavy industry.
Project Key Figures:
📌 Project value: PLN 101,330,550.33
📌 Eligible costs: PLN 79,968,059.95
📌 EU funding contribution: PLN 35,220,874.76
Thanks to the support of European Funds, we are investing in green technologies, the development of a low-emission economy, and the sustainable future of the metallurgical sector.
