On 18 April 2011 at Uniechówek we opened another agricultural biogas plant, our seventh in total. The ceremony was attended by the Danish ambassador to Poland Thomas Østrup Møller, the Chairman of the Agricultural Property Agency Jarosław Denkiewicz, and representatives of the local authorities of Debrzno district and Człuchów county.

The new development at Uniechówek is the seventh ‘biological power plant’ of this type in the Pomeranian region, and the fourth in Człuchów county itself. Grzegorz Brodziak, the President of Poldanor SA, said: “We are consistently pursuing our goal of building biogas stations at our farms, which is very much in line with the European strategy for the development of agriculture using modern and environmentally friendly technologies. Poldanor is proving that large and efficient enterprises are and will be an exceptionally important element of the sustainable development of agriculture in our country through the development of renewable energy sources.” Our company built its first biogas plant in 2005 in Pawłówko, followed by further such projects in Płaszczyca, Kujanki, Koczała, Nacław and Świelino. Our plans for the next three years include the building of another six biogas plants.

The biogas plant in Uniechówek produces “green” electricity for the technological needs of the biogas plant itself and the neighbouring pig farm. The surplus (about 75–85%) is sold to the electrical  network. The energy is produced from manure mixed with additional ingredients: maize silage and fully and partly processed plant products.
