Summary

The information in this factsheet is taken from two in-depth studies on AD; ‘A Detailed Economic Assessment of Anaerobic Digestion Technology and its Suitability to UK Farming and Waste Systems, NNFCC 10-010’, written by The Andersons Centre for the NNFCC, and ‘Farm-Scale Anaerobic Digestion Plant Efficiency, NNFCC 11-015’, written by the NNFCC for the UK Government Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC).

This factsheet was updated in November 2011 to include the latest information on biogas yields and policy support mechanisms for AD.
