aPreliminary estimate. Biogas will mainly be used by the producers and utilities for own energy use

bEstimate based on total revenues including reduction of maintenance costs

cCurrently there are 10 Nereda plants that can potentially produce Bio-Ale. Estimates for cellulose and Bio-Ale are based on input from Waternet and Royal HaskoningDHV experts
