The Carbon Competitors
Long term - Handicaps - Planning Consents - Taxes - Better odds elsewhere
- Traded Permits - Renewable targets - Import dependency on rivals - Rising logistics costs - High value prizes - Improving technology
- EU targets - Energy trends - High value prizes - Traded Permits - Producer reuse
Form
Early Faller
Expensive Thoroughbred Regular Winner
Stayer Good Value All Rounder
- Low value prizes - Staying power - Plenty of local runners - Cheap setup - Soils directive - Low distribution costs

Anaerobic digestion (AD) Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a method of
waste treatment that produces a gas with high methane content from organic materials.
The methane can be used to produce heat, electricity, or a combination of the two.
Land Requirements Estimated at 1 sq ft per tonne
processed.
Capital Costs
£10m - £29m for 60,000 tpa
plant
Operating Costs £28 per tonne processed
Staff Levels Dependent on unit size

Energy as gas, heat, light ,transport fuel, steam and cooling =£ 120 billion-8% of UK GDP
Recycling 30 million tonnes = £ 4 billion- 3% of GDP
Composting 4 million tonnes =£100 million – 0.08% of GDP

Why is there an Investment
Hiatus in Waste?
Innovation Risk comprises those on-
………Feedstock supply
………Site and Land
………Technology
……..Exit markets for output
……..Funding
THERE IS NO PLc with a singular approach to these risks and we are ignoring the scale of sewerage sites!
