About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

AAK AB invested SEK 500 million in two biomass boilers at its production plant in Aarhus, Denmark. The boilers generate energy from residual shea kernel waste, enabling fuel switching from fossil sources and cutting site emissions by 90%. The project supports AAK's own operational decarbonization (Scope 1). Evidence: "AAK AB (publ.) will invest SEK 500 million to install two biomass boilers at its production plant in Aarhus, Denmark... The bio boilers are expected to reduce the plant's CO₂ emissions by 90 percent." — https://www.aak.com/news-and-media/press-releases/2022/aak-to-invest-sek-500-million-in-biomass-boilers-for-substantial-co-reduction-and-savings/
