About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

Biogas from anaerobic sludge digestion at the Franca wastewater treatment plant is upgraded to biomethane and used to fuel approximately 40 SABESP service vehicles, replacing fossil fuels. Operational since 2018 with ongoing use and savings documented through 2025. Evidence: "A Sabesp iniciou o uso do biogás em Franca em abril de 2018, quando o biometano virou combustível da frota da empresa no município." — https://www.saneamentoambiental.com.br/noticias/projeto-de-biogas-da-sabesp-e-finalista-de-concurso-mundial
