More green grants for Organic Fuel Technology: Paving the way for energy innovation

The technology company Organic Fuel Technology, based in INCUBA Navitas, has received major new support for its WaveFuels project from EUDP, the Energy Technology Development and Demonstration Programme, which is a public subsidy scheme. The programme supports new technology in the energy field that can contribute to meeting Denmark's energy and climate goals.

The goal of the WaveFuels project is to design, test, optimise and prepare an industrial-scale demonstration plant of microwave cracking technology that converts biomass to biofuels and biochar to carbon storage. This will contribute to the green transition by improving resource utilisation and the management of organic waste materials.

Together with its partners in the WaveFuels consortium (Aarhus University, EUROmilling A/S, Energy Cluster Denmark, Topsøe A/S and GreenLab), Organic Fuel Technology has been awarded a large co-financing grant from the Danish EUDP programme for energy innovation.

The grant is earmarked for the construction and initial operation of Organic Fuel Technology's first full-scale demonstration plant at GreenLab in Skive and amounts to DKK 33 million or EUR 4.4 million.

Strong collaboration across several companies in INCUBA strengthens sustainable energy innovation

The groundbreaking project WaveFuels marks a milestone in a close collaboration between several companies and key players, many of which are based in INCUBA: Organic Fuel Technology, Energy Cluster Denmark and GreenLab are all part of INCUBA and work in close partnership across the ecosystem.

"Including the recent EUDP grant, Organic Fuel Technology has now received three grants in 2023. We consider this a strong vote of confidence in the potential of our technology, and we are excited about the prospects for a very exciting 2024," says CEO Jens Henrik Haahr, adding:

"We are pleased to have had the opportunity to network and meet potential partners such as GreenLab and Energy Cluster Denmark, among others, through our presence in INCUBA's community."
