FINNING has announced it has signed up to join the Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA), underlining its commitment to lower and zero carbon power technology.
The Cat dealer explained that anaerobic digestion has a ‘crucial’ role to play in the energy transition, as the biogas produced by this process represents a sustainable alternative to ‘carbon-intensive’ fossil fuels.
Finning added that it has been ‘pioneering’ its use for several years.
Kelly Cole, general manager for Finning, explained, “The use of biogas has been an important part of our offer for some time, as Cat gas gensets are designed to help make the most of the potential environmental and economic benefits. Our experts have helped customers in sectors ranging from utilities to food production and agriculture to take advantage of this through applications such as combined heat and power (CHP) systems.
“But we have only just begun to realise the full potential of biogas as a lower carbon fuel, and so joining ADBA is a natural step for us to take. We are excited to be working with the association’s experts and other members in exploring how we can best help customers to implement more sustainable power solutions.”
ADBA represents over 300 organisations from operators and equipment suppliers through to gas distribution networks. Mark Galbraith, business development director for ADBA, said, “We are delighted to welcome Finning to the association. Anaerobic digestion has such an important role to play in decarbonising the UK and having the expertise Finning possess in power technology will be of great value as we continue to promote these benefits.”
