The Time is Now
In our three-part series, The Time is Now, we focus on the urgency around creating energy independence for AD plant operators and the communities they serve. After a decade of unprecedented fuel price volatility and geopolitical shocks, waiting is no longer a business strategy. This series explores how forward-thinking operators are taking control of their own fuel supply, stabilising their costs, and driving a new circular model of fuel production.
Part 1
From Food Waste to Fuel Hub with ALG Biogas
ALG Biogas saw untapped potential in the surplus gas from its AD plant. With Bennamann’s CAPCH4™ technology, it is converting that biogas into Bio-CNG to fuel its own heavy-duty fleet and reduce diesel dependence. The result is a new way to sweat an existing asset harder, cut fuel costs and create greater commercial value from waste.
Part 2
Owning the Supply Chain with Menchine Farm
For Menchine Farm, energy independence is about taking control of the supply chain and protecting the business from volatile energy costs. Its Bennamann CAPCH4™ system turns farm waste into Bio-CNG to power its fleet of New Holland methane tractors. It’s the latest step in a long-term strategy for greater self-sufficiency, with ambitions to extend the opportunity beyond the farm gate.
Part 3
Turning Methane into Movement at Rushywood Farm
Rushywood Farm is turning one of dairy farming’s biggest environmental challenges into a valuable energy asset. Using Bennamann’s CAPCH4™ technology, methane from the farm’s slurry and manure is captured and converted into Bio-CNG to power its tractors. It’s a circular solution that simultaneously reduces emissions and fuel costs while improving the farm’s long-term resilience.
