In 2012 and 2013 the business Séchilienne – Sidec concentrated their activities on the electrical recovery of biomass.
As a part of their strategic redirection, the business wants to change their name to make its identity powerful and strong.
Albioma is created from the words valeurs (values) and biomass, putting life (bios in Greek) in the centre of the name, emphasising environmental respect and recycling. This message is a combination of dawn (alba en latin), thus emphasising a new future in energy production from other sources than fossil fuels.
