Gas Malaysia Bhd has unveiled Malaysia’s first centralized biomethane injection station, aiming to begin full operations in the second half of 2025. Company executives expressed confidence in securing sufficient feedstock from palm oil waste, projecting the facility could break even in as little as seven years.
Turning palm waste into renewable gas
Methane is the primary component of natural gas, and biomethane can be produced through purification of palm oil mill effluent (POME) and empty fruit bunches (EFB).
