La Française de l'Énergie announced a new certification of its 2P abandoned mine gas (AMM) reserves on the two concessions held in the Hauts-de-France's region. While 360 ??million m3 have already been captured and monetize through the production of gas and green electricity over the last 4 years, this new certification carried out by DMT (Tüv Nord group) now shows AMM reserves of 3.6 billion m3 (21.6 TWh), thus confirming the significant potential for the capture and recovery of mine gas, well above the current objective set at 49.5 MW of installed capacity in the Franco-Belgian basin by the end of 2022. La Francaise de l'Energie anticipates that more than 3 million tonnes of CO2eq emissions will be avoided annually through the capture of AMM and the installation of new cogeneration units in Hauts-de-France and Belgium.

This development will reinforce the company's positioning as the leading contributor to the region's fight against Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. This exceptional positive impact on the Hauts-de-France region makes LFDE one of the main players in the territory's ecological transition.
