Bio-methane role
21 November 2016
As more companies look to turn waste products such as food residue and sewage into a revenue stream, the importance of LPG to this source of renewable power and heat looks set to grow, according to Calor

Calor gas has already been used by cheese producer Wyke Farms at its site in Somerset, which converts 75,000t of biodegradable waste per year into renewable gas that is blended with LPG before being sold to the National Grid. Welsh Water also uses LPG from Calor to boost the energy content of bio-methane produced from sewage at its Five Fords plant.
Ken Davies, bio-methane expert at Calor says: “LPG has the lowest carbon emissions of all off-grid fossil fuels, and as such makes the perfect partner fuel for supporting renewable technologies.”
- Companies choose efficiency over lower emissions
- Quick fuel changeover
- Tanks of energy
- Selling grid quality gas
- Renewable fuel
- Off mains, not off budget
- Boiler manufacturer cuts costs and emissions
- Compliance with the MCPD using industrial LPG
- Fuelling a greener future
- Biomethane uptake predicted to soar
