26 May 2011: Mayfair Conference Centre (funny, it's in Bayswater)

(as with WesternWorld, MedievalWorld, and RomanWorld,
but it was cut from the finished film)

"The potential of anaerobic digestion (AD) is unquestionable – estimates suggest that 18% of the UK’s total gas demands could be met by renewable gas, and up to 48% of its residential gas demands. The hope is that the new announcements on the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) at 6.5p/kWh for biomethane injection into the grid, guaranteed for 20 years, will further encourage investment into this sector.

"The industry now needs to look at working together to encourage the best use of biogas for meeting the UK’s targets, including the huge increase in energy from waste through anaerobic digestion, which the foundling coalition government promised [definition: 'a deserted or abandoned child of unknown parentage'].

"Support for this growing industry has never been better, so now is the time to get involved. This important conference [aren't they all?] addresses the issues surrounding Developing UK Biogas, and aims to provide the information, direct experience and industry knowledge to enable delegates to move their business plans forward.

"For example:

• Optimum methods for waste collection to ensure constant and consistant feedstock
• Understanding government support mechanisms – FITs, ROCs and the RHI – and their implications
• Permitting and planning – getting it right to ensure positive acceptance
• The emerging AD framework and what this will mean for the industry
• Developing funding mechanisms appropriate for a developing sector
• Encouragement of digestate markets
• Gas to grid injection and vehicle fuel production
• The impact of localism and what this will mean for decentralised energy.

"Developing UK Biogas features top speakers and industry experts who will be examining these and other key issues, in the light of the government’s on-going waste strategy review and AD framework plans. To ensure you are up to date with the latest developments in the increasingly important AD industry, ensure you are at the industry’s longest established and leading conference."
