Have Your Heard? Green Gas Industry Receives Vital Boost

 

Updates to the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI)

With the Government reinstating higher rates for the RHI scheme recently, Anaerobic Digestion plant operators will now be able to claim a restored tariff of 5.6p per kWh of renewable heat generated for Tier 1 bio-methane (the first 40,000 MWh injected into the grid per year).

Once a plant is commissioned, plant operators will receive a guaranteed tariff level for twenty years.

Anaerobic Digestion

Anaerobic Digestion plants generate green gas by breaking down organic waste into carbon dioxide, methane and water. This mixture of gases is called biogas, while the water and material left over is known as digestate.

  • Biogas – can be burned to produce heat and electricity
  • Methane – can be used as fuel for vehicles or can be injected into the gas grid
  • Digestate – can be used as fertiliser, feedstock for ethanol production, or in some building materials.

If you think you might be interested in applying for this scheme, or would like more information, visit the ofgem website.
