BIOCCUS
With consortium partners, Bluebox Energy and Woodtek Engineering, Ricardo has designed, installed and is now operating a combined heat and power demonstrator plant at Holmsted Farm, West Sussex, which is fed by sustainable wood waste to continuously supply clean energy, heat, food-grade carbon dioxide and biochar.
The plant showcases a realistic carbon negative technology that can significantly contribute to net zero targets due to its applicability to several energy-intensive industry sectors as an on-site generator of heat and power.
The consortium is funded by the UK Government through the Net Zero Innovation Portfolio (NZIP) under the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero.
