NEARLY HALF OF OUR ENERGY SHOULD COME FROM RENEWABLE SOURCES BY 2030, GOVERNMENT ADVISERS RECOMMEND

The committee was asked to look into a low carbon future by the coalition government shortly after they took power, and has now delivered its findings.

Up to 45% of our energy should be created through renewable energy sources by 2030 according to a new report from the Committee for Climate Change (CCC).


The committee was asked to look into a low carbon future by the coalition government shortly after they took power, and has now delivered its findings.

The report recommends that 30% of the UK's energy should be generated by renewable sources, with the scope for 45% of the energy coming from renewable sources depending on how much the cost of the technology falls.

Currently there is government support for renewables up to 2020 due to European Union targets, and the government are being urged to commit their support to renewable energy sources past this date.

One of the main sources of energy that the committee recommends is biomass. This involves the use of renewable materials such as wood pellets as fuel, and is a carbon neutral form of generating energy.

Biomass can be used in a range of properties and is ideal for use in the home. Independent energy advisor Enerfina can help you select the right biomass product for your needs, with a range of boilers and stoves available to meet your requirements.

Vecoplan - Planning and implementation of complete processing plants in refuse derived fuel production

In order to reduce the costs involved in the energy-intensive production of cement, many manufacturers are turning to refuse-derived fuels (RDF), considerably reducing the proportion of expensive primary fuels they would normally use. Solid fuels are being increasingly used - these might be used tyres, waste wood or mixtures of plastics, paper, composite materials and textiles. Vecoplan provides operators of cement plants with proven and robust components for conveying the material and separating iron and impurities, efficient receiving stations, storage systems and, of course, efficient shredders for an output in various qualities.
