Appearances coming up:

Day Two

@ 11.20

What are the next steps for biomethane injection into the grid and can it deliver 10% of the UK’s domestic gas demand?

How is the industry working to expedite the number of AD plants injecting into the natural gas grid across the UK?

What are the implications of grid connection with further plants to be connected and a limited capacity?

Connecting to local distribution networks is the best option for producers of biomethane- but how can the low pressure network accommodate injections of biomethane?

With no specifications or regulations for removal of VOCS, where is the limit?
