Thames Water to heat West London homes with sewage sludge-based biogas

In the UK, Thames Water has announced sewage sludge will be used to heat homes in West London early this year, after successfully delivering its second gas-to-grid (G2G) project, at its Mogden Sewage Treatment Works (STW). The success of the gas-to-grid model established at Deephams STW in North London in 2021, where biogas is converted into biomethane to heat homes in Enfield, served as the blueprint for the project at Mogden.  Currently serving over 2 million customers, Mogden is the third largest STW in the UK, and has the potential to reach and supply gas to 4000 homes in West London. This comes as part of the company’s commitment on energy transition, by transforming the way it creates and uses power to reach net zero carbon emissions.
