First English biogas facility awarded with standards certification

In the UK, the first biogas digester in England to be certified under the Anaerobic Digestion Certification Scheme has been brought online at Bore Hill Farm where wasted food will be used as feedstock. The facility operated by Malaby Biogas will provide enough electricity to power 2,500 houses. The ADCS scheme was developed by the Anaerobic Digestion & Bioresources Association to raise standards and promote good practice. The Granville EcoPark in Northern Ireland was the first facility to be certified in the country earlier this year.
