Installing an AD plant in 2012 provided a new income stream for an arable farm that wanted to reduce risk through diversification. Today, it exports more than three quarters of the energy it produces, whilst powering the whole farm and benefitting from both the solid and liquid waste product.
When the on-farm AD plant was built at WH Corbett Farms in 2016, it was designed with a Vogelsang feed system.
The Brocklesby AD plant is fed with 92,000 tonnes food soup from the adjacent edible oil recovery plant, Brocklesby Oil, as well as blood and glycerol from nearby food manufacturers.
The owners of Ystym Colwyn Farms wanted to create a low carbon farming system that was good for both the business and the plant. The family-run farm consists of cattle, sheep and poultry, with 325,000 birds across six sheds.
The 1.3MW AD plant in Nomansland, Exeter, has been operating since 2014, and uses a feedstock of approx. 3,000 tonnes of chicken litter and 6,500 tonnes of maize, silage and farmyard muck per year.
The Corbiere Renewables plant, run by Bio Capital, is a truly circular process. Corbiere Renewables is located on the Raynham Estate, which farms some 4,200 acres of crops and supports a beef herd.
