District heating—the generation of heat in a central location and distribution of it to local residences, businesses, and industry at greater economies of scale than individual heating systems—plays an important role in helping the transition to clean energy in the fight against climate change. The challenge, however, is that district heating, used to provide hot water and heat within ...
Advanced electrode boilers are being installed to replace outdated, inefficient fuel-burning equipment in district heating applications as part of broader effort to meet ambitious International Energy Agency decolonization ...
Legislation has potential to boost biogas use across the US When anaerobic digestion is used to process wastewater with a high organic load, it produces energy in the form of biogas, a combination of methane, carbon dioxide, and other gases. In the United States, there is huge potential for expansion in anaerobic digestion, but even though the energy produced can more than pay for the treatment, ...
As the world continues to shift towards sustainable energy sources, biogas is emerging as a valuable and versatile renewable energy option. Biogas is produced through the decomposition of organic matter, such as agricultural waste and sewage, and can be used to generate electricity, heat, and fuel. However, to get the most out of this resource, it is crucial to understand and monitor the quality ...
Today, more than ever, we are looking for ways to lower our energy bills while also reducing our impact on the planet. One of the best solutions that we have in Spain is the use of solar energy. In fact, one of Spain's strengths is its large number of sunny days throughout the year: a strength that becomes a real advantage in terms of energy generation and savings. But, what data should we take ...
Combinatul de Celuloza si Hârtie S.A (Pulp and Paper Factory) in Romania, have chosen Clarke Energy to install a combined heat and power (CHP) plant to optimise the utility costs of their operation. The main objective of this investment is to increase operational energy efficiency at CCH S.A. Drobeta Turnu Severin through the implementation of the high-efficiency cogeneration plant. The ...
With an underdeveloped waste-to-energy market, new legislation promotes greater adoption of anaerobic digestion On August 16, United States President Biden signed the $750 billion Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) into law and biogas industry groups immediately hailed its hefty incentives for anaerobic digestion, a technology that recovers energy from waste in the form of ...
Ecoheat Technologies is proud of its team and its achieved results! Moving towards the development of new technological solutions is course of action in everyday operations for it's employees. In August 2022, Ilze Indriksone, Minister of Economy of the Republic of Latvia, visited our facility to acknowledge the company's work. The members of the delegation had the opportunity to see for ...
Extreme weather, variable PV and wind, and aging infrastructure are straining grids. Stressed substations, particularly those at the grid’s edge, present especially difficult and costly challenges. At times, they can be overwhelmed by too much power on the grid, e.g., from too much PV or wind. At other times aging infrastructure coupled with the often widely variable demand they serve ...
You’d be hard-pressed to find a home heating option that’s as expensive, dirty, and inefficient as fuel oil. It’s no wonder that homeowners are upgrading to clean, renewable, energy-efficient geothermal heating and cooling in record numbers. Here are the top five reasons why folks are making the switch: 1. Geothermal saves homeowners thousands of dollars Any homeowner who ...
SOLAR SOLUTIONS FOR THE BREWING INDUSTRY The growth of craft brewing in the United States has been explosive in recent years. The producers who thrive in this more competitive market will be the ones who can lower production costs while maintaining the high quality responsible for their success. In an era where the American public demands social responsibility from their favored brands, ...
At its annual forum, World Economic announced that "by 2030, solar energy could become the most important energy source for electricity and heat production in much of the world." So while solar power remains marginal in the global energy mix, we are forced to see that it is growing exponentially and worldwide. Indeed, solar energy seems to be the great energy of the future due to its multiple ...
Currently, 80% of British households use gas central heating systems, but that won't be the case in the future. The UK is switching to renewable energy, and by 2035, all of the country's electricity will come from clean energy sources. To support the government's efforts to switch to renewable energy and cut carbon emissions, why not offer low-carbon solutions now and help the government reach ...
AGR is a leading renewable energy company specialising in low carbon energy generation, with over £350m of projects delivered to date in the UK, including a portfolio of gas peaking and combined heat and power (CHP) projects. AGR developed and is the main EPC contractor for a new 217,000m² glasshouse and energy centre in Cambridgeshire and has sold the project to funds managed by ...
Lack of paperwork and changes to your biomass system are just some of the things which can lead to your Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) being stopped, which is why our specialist consultants/Engineers at Barden Biomass are here to help your RHI inspection go as smoothly as possible. We offer a service to attend your site, so any queries can be resolved on that day, with the ...
Plant: 1 x ZE-50-LT Low-Temperature Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Module, nominal output 50 kWe Nominal output: 50 kWe Application: Heat recovery from engines (two MAN biogas-fueled gensets) Location: Province of Padua, Veneto, Italy Manager: Private Italian firm The cattle farm which commissioned this plant lies in a small village in a corner of the province ...
This large domestic property in the tiny hamlet of Bircher was dependent upon oil for its heating and costs were rising year after year. The owners decided to investigate the options for reducing the costs of keeping their house warm especially after a particularly cold, and expensive, winter ...
Aberdulais Falls in the Neath Valley, South Wales is an important industrial heritage site owned and run by the National Trust. For over 400 years these falls provided the energy to drive the wheels of industry, from the manufacture of copper in 1584 to the later tinplate works. A recent major refurbishment of the water wheel gave scope for implementing the latest hydraulic technology to improve ...
One of the bioeconomy’s greatest opportunities lies in provision of renewable heat, specifically from the injection of biomethane from anaerobic digestion (AD) into the gas grid. This provides a consistent and reliable source of renewable heat for both domestic and non-domestic purposes by decarbonising the gas grid, lowering the carbon emissions profile compared to natural gas. ...
In 2018, ADEME and BRGM decided to focus on increasing the visibility of geothermal energy. First of all, this involves uniting the organisations that are promoting geothermal energy around an “advocacy campaign” for surface geothermal energy and then also of increasing the visibility of geothermal energy on the Internet. The need With the Multi-Year Energy Plan predicting that ...
