Call for AD Contracts for Difference (CfD) Scheme for Small-scale Renewable Energy
On the day that the UK didn’t leave Europe, the trade association ADBA called for a Contracts for Difference (CfD) scheme for Small-scale Renewable Energy, including biogas. (Not sure you understand what CfDs are? If so, scroll down to our explanation below!) Why choose a day when, amongst the Brexit furore, almost nobody would be […]
Biomethane Production: Sweden Leads with Schmack Carbotech Plant – Plus One in France
Biomethane Production in Sweden continues to lead in installed biomethane facilities just as it did when we first reported this in 2014. We said at the time that “Sweden’s leading role in bioenergy through biomethane production, with the world’s largest installed biogas upgrading capacity, is set to further pull ahead”. It did and now in 2022, […]
Farm Methane Digesters – What to Know About Cow Power
Farm methane digesters are large tanks, or covered lagoons, where organic materials from the dairy farm are stored and broken down by bacteria and organisms called archaea to make renewable methane gas. These are also known as anaerobic digesters: facilities that harness the power of methane produced by decomposing cow waste and convert it into […]
Electricity Generation from Biogas
Electricity generation from biogas is not new. There are already millions of biogas plants in operation throughout the world and many provide electricity. The biogas generators needed to produce electricity from biogas are available at all scales of output. Plus, the technology to clean up the raw biogas before it is combusted is available, tried and […]
