Kedco is delighted to announce the appointment of Richard Kennedy to the high level action group on Green Enterprise recently announced by the Irish Government.

There is huge potential for the “green” economy to help Ireland meet its current economic and environmental challenges and this action group will advise the government on how it will go about investing in Green Enterprise.
The Global energy market is expected to be worth US$1.3 Trillion (€1Trillion) in 2010 and the group will be tasked with mobilising our talents across both the public and private sector to position Ireland at the forefront of the new global green economy, according to Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources, Eamon Ryan TD

The group will report to the Government in four months time, advising it on how state agencies and departments should work together to exploit our huge potential in the area.

Ok, I live in West Cork and sometimes I need to have some instant heat at this time of year.

Maybe we’ve been out for the day and we need to heat the living room quickly when we get home in the evening or maybe it was a warm day with a cold night?

I always like to consider the environment when I heat the house. I live in a rented house so have no control over the source of central heating which is oil fueled. If it was my house I would have a wood pellet boiler.
I have solar water heating, and while it heats water no matter how little sunshine, there have been few days this spring that it reached maximum temperature. So it needs a little help.

I used to just switch on the oil and forget about it but now I’ve discovered that Eco heat logs are the perfect solution. They are CO2 neutral, excellent value for money and create UNBELIEVEBALE heat!
So next time you need heat quickly, don’t turn on the oil, light some heatlogs

The Government have today announced that Farmers and households will be able to sell excess electricity back to the national grid.

Energy Minister Eamon Ryan stated that the first 4,000 installations around the country will get a guaranteed 19cent a KWh. Minister Ryan went on to say “We are changing the rules and changing the nature of electricity generation in Ireland.

Before you received your power from a central source and paid for it. Now you can generate for yourself and be paid for the excess you don’t use.

This type of on-site electricity generation will boost the rural economy. It will put more money into consumers’ pockets. This type of long-term investment with a guaranteed return represents the best value for spending and lending.

All our farms and houses can be micro-generators. We can use our abundant natural resources to bolster the economy, create green-collar jobs and reduce carbon emissions at the same time.

Every year, we send €6 billion out of this country on fossil fuels. This type of generation will help reduce this dependence and this outflow of money. We do not want to be dependent on Russia or Saudi Arabia for our energy needs; we can supply our own.”

Kedco have a system of converting waste to energy, the Kedco Green Energy Harvester. Since the beginning of the 21st centurary a new market has opened up for the use of biogas technology in the production of electrical and thermal energy from organic matter. The technology of ‘dry fermentation‘ can generate enery from communal and agricultural organic matter/waste.

Up until recently, biogas technology concentrated primarily on the ‘wet fermentation’ of agricultural and communal organic waste, while the recently patented Bekon dry fermentation process can produce methane from organic matter with a high content of dry matter. This kind of energy production is environmentally sound and cost effective, while also creating and securing employment. Read the rest of this entry »
