zł.100 million investment in bio-fuels comes to Wrocław

Polmos Wrocław is preparing to begin the production of methyl esters, which is added to diesel fuels, a project worth some zł.100 million. "It fits well into the political program of the new government. The expected date for the finalization of the investment is at the turn of the third and fourth quarter of 2006," said Bogumiła Woźniak, from Polmos Wrocław press office. The company is to produce 150,000 tonnes of methyl esters annually and it has already signed agreements with the most significant domestic suppliers of required resources. However, market analysts say the company will need time to reach the planned production level, as other companies such as Biopaliwa, Solvent Dwory and Trzebinia refinery are also planning expansion into the sector.
