GERMANY 08 — LOWER SAXONY–HARZ/HANNOVER
Germany 08 covers the north-central German CAMPUS region centred on the Harz and Hannover, combining extensive managed forests with one of northern Germany’s most important rail, logistics and industrial centres.
Germany’s 11-CAMPUS structure represents an average regional area of approximately 32,500 km². Germany 08 is assessed at approximately 30% forest cover, equivalent to around 975,000 hectares of forest.
Forest Resource
| Germany 08 | |
| CAMPUS area | ~32,500 km² |
| Forest cover | ~30% |
| Forest area | ~975,000 ha |
| Rule 1.01 recoverable residues | ~985,000 t/year |
| Upstream resource equivalent | ~6.6 TITAN clusters |
| Proposed deployment | Up to 3 clusters |
| 3-cluster requirement | 450,000 t/year |
| Primary-resource utilisation | ~46% |
Applying Rule 1.01 — 1.01 tonnes of recoverable forest-floor residue per managed hectare per year — indicates approximately 985,000 tonnes/year of potential upstream resource, equivalent to approximately 6.6 TITAN clusters.
The proposed three-cluster CAMPUS therefore requires around 46% of the indicative upstream resource, providing significant feedstock headroom. The primary resource is managed forest-floor harvest and maintenance residue; merchantable timber and roundwood are excluded from the TITAN feedstock case.
Lower Saxony has an established forestry, sawmilling and wood-products economy, while the Harz provides a particularly concentrated managed-forest resource. Sawmill residues, wood-manufacturing residues, parks and avenue maintenance and reclaimed wood therefore provide additional downstream resource opportunity and are not required to establish the primary Rule 1.01 forest-floor investment case.
Hannover is one of northern Germany’s principal rail and logistics hubs, providing strong north–south and east–west connectivity toward Hamburg and the North Sea ports, the Rhine-Ruhr industrial region, Berlin and central Germany. This combination of forest resource, established forestry capability, industrial infrastructure and national logistics access provides a strong foundation for Germany 08.
Investment proposition: up to 3 TITAN clusters, approximately €525 million total CAPEX, with additional integrated CAMPUS platforms creating the potential for a €1 billion+ regional investment opportunity.
NOT TIMBER. NOT TREES. RENEWABLE CARBON.
TITAN: Das kommerzielle Rückgrat des CAMPUS
TITAN verbindet Vergasung, Biotechnologie und Targeted Microbial Fermentation (TMF), um fehlgeleiteten Kohlenstoff aus Waldreststoffen im industriellen Maßstab in erneuerbare Kraftstoffe, Materialien und wirtschaftlichen Wert umzuwandeln.
Die Vergasung wandelt Waldreststoffe in Hydrogen Producer Gas – HPG um – die gemeinsame Währung der Plattform. Targeted Microbial Fermentation leitet das HPG anschließend durch den vollständigen Fermentations-Stack: methanogene, acetogene und aerobe Microbial Workers.
Swing, Swing, Swing. TITAN kann HPG entsprechend der Marktnachfrage zwischen den verschiedenen Fermentationswegen verteilen und damit LRNG, 2G-Ethanol, Proteine, Polymere und weitere hochwertige Produkte herstellen.
Unsere Priorität ist der Aufbau der ersten zehn TITAN-Standorte in Polen. Dieses Roll-out-Programm ist darauf ausgelegt, bis 2035 drei strategische Produktionsschwellen zu überschreiten: 1 GW konstante LRNG-Leistung, 1,6 Millionen Liter 2G-Ethanol pro Tag und – über den Alcohol-to-Jet-Pfad – 1 Million Liter SAF pro Tag.
Jeder TITAN ist eine wiederholbare Cookie-Cutter-Plattform und bildet das kommerzielle Rückgrat seines CAMPUS. Schwesterplattformen können entsprechend den lokalen Bedingungen ergänzt werden und erweitern das Misplaced Carbon Spectrum durch gemeinsam genutzte HPG-, Versorgungs- und Fermentationsinfrastruktur – ohne das TITAN-Kernmodell zu verändern.
