Summary
Due to the introduction of the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI), NNFCC were commissioned by the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) to collate an evidence base on bioliquid heat only technologies. The study considered bioliquids which have the potential to be used as heating fuel, either now or in the near-term, e.g. vegetable oil, biodiesel and, to a lesser extent, tallow. The scope of the study was to identify suitable technology options for dedicated heat generation (excluding combined heat and power (CHP)) from a range of bioliquid fuels, both 100% renewable and renewable/fossil blends, and also to research the capital costs of these technologies.
