Shale Gas in the UK: Not Needed Just Move Funding to Biogas Production
Shale Gas in UK is halted! But, it’s not a problem! Why? The UK government has been subsidizing Shale Gas in the UK with massive tax breaks on investment in the idea. But now, due to unexpected earthquake activity directly initiated deep underground wherever there have been fracking experiments; all exploration has been stopped indefinitely. […]
Climate Change Emergency UK – ADBA’s General Election Manifesto for Net Zero Emissions
Solving the Climate Change Emergency UK will require urgent action after the new parliament returns. ADBA (the UK’s Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association) has the technology to act quickly on this, so here are ADBA’s General Election Manifesto measures which could help the UK achieve Net Zero Emissions. Whether you agree that the UK is […]
Anaerobic Digestion Regulations – UK Environmental Protection, Animal By-products, Duty of Care, Health and Safety
Anaerobic Digestion Regulations surprisingly, don’t exist in the UK. At least not all neatly bundled into a single government act or rule book. Instead, AD Plant operators must comply with a range of statutory requirements (“Laws” to you and me). The four which must be tackled once Planning Permission has been obtained are as follows: […]
Advanced Conversion Technologies to Extract Energy from Waste – AD Rivals?
Advanced Conversion Technologies is the term for technologies such as gasification and pyrolysis. These could become competitors with Anaerobic Digestion. In fact, a number of innovative advanced, high temperature processes for Energy from Waste/ Waste to Energy, are beginning to emerge from the far east. These may become more efficient (after further development), than conventional […]
Reduce Mass Extinction in 2100 by Enabling Biogas Decarbonization Now
Concerned about accelerating mass extinction in 2100, and subsequently? Read this to find out how maximising biogas production now is an essential tool towards the decarbonization of Europe. By decarbonising quickly the benefits accrue over the years and provide much more benefit in reduced temperature rises, than by doing this later. Read the following Press […]
The Ugly Truth About Ignoring the Benefits of a Circular Economy
Ignoring the Benefits of a Circular Economy in an attempt to sign a trade deal with the US, while ditching UK alignment with the EU, would have ugly outcomes for future generations. The circular economy is the only hope for future generations for whom the current generation must return to using no more than the […]
Changes in UK Small-Scale AD Subsidies – Reductions to New Applicants
This is for those interested in UK Small-Scale AD Subsidies. Small-Scale AD Subsidies – Government Confirms New Feed-in -Tariff rates “The government also confirmed that a degression mechanism will be introduced for Anaerobic Digestion (AD), wind and hydro technologies from April 2014 in line with uptake, rather than the initial proposal of a minimum five […]
CCC Net Zero Report by 2050 ADBA Responds with Support
In the “CCC Net Zero Report“, the IPCC says global greenhouse gas emissions need to reach “net zero” around 2050. To achieve the net-zero target tens of billions of pounds will need to be invested in renewable energy, electric vehicles, capturing and storing carbon emissions, and planting trees, according to the CCC. Currently the UK […]
Renewable Energy Trends Of 2019
There are many exciting developments in the renewable energy trends of 2019! The adoption of renewable energy is proceeding at least as rapidly as was hoped globally. That’s good news for decarbonising the globe, but within that overall picture there’s a great deal more of interest. Read-on to find out more about solar panel advances, […]
Biogas Power to Make Green Electricity for Norfolk Military Base UK AD Plant
Biogas power will generate Green Electricity for a Norfolk Military Base it has been announced. The UK Anaerobic Digestion Plant will the a first to be used in this way. It will see almost all of the bases electricity requirement supplied from a new on-farm green renewable energy resource now operating. Press Release Starts: Defence […]
