One of the aspects of the new civic centre which I think, in it's own nerdish way, is rather exciting is the biomass boiler supplied by Fleetsolve. With minor adjustments, this can be made to take a variety of different fuels. The original intention was to use vegetable oil, but this has now changed to waste fish oil I.e. fish oil from food processing companies that would otherwise be thrown away. The unit should recapture its own waste heat, giving it a high efficiency rating.
The intention is that surplus electricity will be sold on to the national grid.
