Client: A UK Water Company.
District Eating services: Micro-feasibility.
Key figures – the opportunity:
- Potential for up to a 2.5ha greenhouse heated using onsite resources
- Up to 1MW heat available from a combination of sewage heat and biogas CHP from AD
- Potential to supply 5,200 tonnes per year of clean CO2 to a horticulture facility
- Potential payback of 6.4 years for commercial salad production, resulting in a payback time of 8 years for our client based on key assumptions
- Estimated reduction of 35% on BAU embodied carbon emission for strawberries grown onsite
- Potential to create up to 15 employment opportunities
- Contact made with all commercial growers within a 20-mile radius of the site
