Biogas acquisitions, Hamburg grid cable deals, and South Korea green finance plan

Byont has acquired two operating biogas plants in Germany, raising its German portfolio to four facilities with about 160 GWh of annual output. NKT secured three high-voltage cable contracts from Hamburger Energienetze to upgrade Hamburg's 110 kV network for growing renewable and electrification demand. South Korea also outlined a green transformation financing plan targeting roughly KRW 1,000 trillion through 2035.

Byont Deutschland completed purchases of two operating biogas sites in Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt during August 2026, later announcing them in October. Renamed Byont Schwartenpohl and Byont Badeleben, they lift the company’s German total to four plants, with roughly 160 GWh yearly output. Völpke already injects upgraded biomethane into the gas grid; Wietmarschen may add upgrading later. Staff and suppliers are to remain.

NKT’s three contracts with Hamburger Energienetze support Hamburg’s Grid of the Future. They involve over 50 km of high-voltage XLPE cable for underground 110 kV projects, intended to serve more renewable power, industry, EVs and heat pumps. South Korea’s strategy seeks about KRW 1,000 trillion by 2035, including KRW 200 trillion public and KRW 790 trillion climate finance, plus 100 GW renewable capacity by 2030 and green bonds in 2028.
