Two new solar schemes are now helping to power essential water and waste water services for Scottish Water sites on the Isle of Bute, cutting operational costs and saving carbon.

Yorkshire Water’s strategy to generate at least 40% of its own operational energy took a major step forward recently with the switch-on of five solar farm sites at Filey, Malton, Belle Vue, Monk Bretton and Harrogate South.

Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council has awarded a contract for an anaerobic digestion facility for the disposal of food waste worth an estimated £150,000.

Scottish Water has completed a £300,000 solar project at its Helensburgh Wastewater Treatment Works (WwTW) - the new scheme will meet 26% of the site's energy needs.

Noventa Energy (Noventa), a leading provider of decarbonised heating and cooling solutions, has acquired three innovative heat from waste water assets from Scottish Water Horizons.

Scottish Water has issued a Periodic Indicative Notice to launch an early market engagement initiative for the construction of a major bioresource processing facility with an estimated value of up to £285 million.

NI Water is set to reduce its carbon footprint after becoming one of the first public sector organisations to install a state-of-the-art battery energy storage system.

Thames Water has announced two more wastewater treatment sites in south west London are now converting sewage sludge into electricity.

United Utilities is seeking supply chain input on its plans to install new Gas to Grid upgrading plant with a Biomethane / CO2 carbon capture (liquified) that takes all the on-site generated gas (~ 6000nm3/hr) from its existing anaerobic digestion storage for export into the gas network.

Scottish Water has completed the installation of 556 roof mounted solar photovoltaic (PV) panels at Tullich Water Treatment Works (WTW) on the outskirts of the town - the energy intensive WTW will now save 43 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent each year.
