If completely implemented, the Galician Transformation Pole is expected to create $5.200 million in capital investments, which will be supplemented by initiatives developed in a driving way. Its development might result in the creation of 30,000 direct and indirect employment, as well as a reduction of about three tons of CO2. The following is how major initiatives interact with one another.
The Circular Economy Center is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the circular economy The anaerobic digestion of manure and other organic waste of industrial origin; the classification and recycling of urban waste, industrial plastics, marine litter, and textile fiber; the manufacture of textile fibers from recycled PET plastics; and the recycling of mussel shells were the focus of a plant for the treatment and recovery of all types of waste.
Hydrolysis results in the production of green hydrogen. It would be constructed in two plants located in As Pontes and Meirama with a capacity of 100 megawatts that would be expanded the following year, using electricity produced in the parks of the new renewable power project as a source of energy.
New sources of renewable energy. Wind and solar power plants will be used to power the pole’s other initiatives. It calls for 400 megawatts of offshore wind power, 600 megawatts of onshore wind power, and 50 megawatts of solar photovoltaic electricity.
