Expansion of the capacities of an existing facility

By investing in a new centrifuge, we aim to significantly improve the stability and quality of our sea buckthorn products.

In addition, the amount of waste is reduced and larger daily production can be processed.

The project focuses on the development of methods, tools and technologies (SINNO Energy Toolkit) that support the transition to clean energy by providing innovative energy storage solutions and flexible power generation, while ensuring system compatibility and distributed energy storage standards for participation in flexibility markets.


The SINNOGENES project involves 27 partners from Portugal, Spain, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Greece, Italy, Cyprus, and Switzerland. It includes six demonstration sites in five different European countries. The proposed energy toolkit is being tested in various settings and areas of need.

  • Demo #1: Maia, Portugal,
  • industrial park


  • Demo #2: Soria, Spain,
  • Microgrid system


  • Demo #3: Huesca, Spain,
  • Walqa Technology Park


  • Demo #4: Herzberg, Germany,
  • Sea buckthorn processing


  • Demo #5: Ikaria, Greece,
  • pumped storage power plant


  • Demo #6: Canton of Geneva, Switzerland,
  • Public transport services


As part of the SINNOGENES project, we aim to improve our carbon footprint. To this end, new photovoltaic and solar thermal systems are being installed to charge the batteries and buffer storage. 


The stored energy is then converted into hot water by a high-temperature heat pump to produce process water for sea buckthorn processing and pasteurizing the sea buckthorn juice.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon programme under the Grant Agreement No. 101096992
