AI Summary

Bayer has started testing a system that generates steam using renewable electricity at its La Felguera plant in Langreo, Asturias, Spain. The facility, which produces acetylsalicylic acid, aims to replace fossil‑fuel steam with a solution developed by Iberdrola España. The setup links a 15 MW renewable power purchase agreement and a 2.5 MW on‑site solar installation to a salt‑based thermal energy storage system. The combined approach is intended to provide renewable steam for Bayer’s manufacturing process.
