Baku, Azerbaijan, Oct. 19
By Huseyn Veliyev - Trend:
Azerbaijan is interested and ready to introduce hydrogen technologies to generate alternative energy, the Deputy Chairman of The State Agency on Alternative and Renewable Energy Sources of the Republic of Azerbaijan Jamil Malikov told Trend.
The State Agency has considered the possibility of using such technologies of the Italian company Maire Tecnimont.
"Presently, such technologies are at the stage of research and development, and there is no industrial equipment that could be introduced for the production of electric and thermal energy. Regarding cooperation with Maire Tecnimont in this field, I can say that such technologies may be of interest to us. As soon as a real installation or equipment is created, we will be able to promote them in Azerbaijan," Malikov said.
As Malikov had earlier said, this technology is very relevant for Azerbaijan, if to consider that presently, waste of local poultry farms for example, is not recycled.
"At best, this waste gets burned, polluting the environment," he said.
Italian company Maire Tecnimont also offers recycling technologies. It is about the use of biomass waste for the production of environmentally friendly fertilizers for agriculture.
