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.
Kedco plc, is a bio-science energy group operating in the United Kingdom and Ireland that also comprises a number of businesses serving industrial and residential customers all with a renewable energy focus including the sale of biomass boilers and the production of wood and biomass products. Kedco floated on the Alternative Investment Market(AIM) of the London Stock Exchange on Monday October 20th 2008. Kedco was admitted to the AIM with a market capitalisation of €35.0million

Kedco is a leading bio-science energy group operating in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Kedco provides companies with platforms to convert waste into clean energy. Kedco are experts in technologies such as dry fermentation , gasification , biomass heating , power generation through the installation of Combined Heat and Power (CHP) units , domestic wood pellet boilers and solar panels .

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

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.”

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.

Instead of disposing of organic matter from agriculture or communal waste in other ways, dry fermentation offers a means of turning it into a valuable resource and extracting the highest possible benifit from it (in the form of biogas, electricity, heat, compost and fertiliser). The high quality compost, which results from the process of dry fermentation, can be used as a valuable fertilizer for agricultural and horticultural purpose.

Advantages of Dry Fermentation

1. Additional income for waste disposers, municipalities, farmers

2. Generation of a direct source of income in rural areas through highly valuable end products (electricity, heat, compost). Additional advantages compared to wet fermentation systems in countries where water is a limited resource. Low maintenance requirements and robust technology, therefore particularly suitable for export. Potentially contribution to reducing fossil fuel consumption and thus to combating climate change.

3. Perfect Solutions for Governments with a waste management issue.

4. Utilization of presently unused high energy content substrates.

5. Compact design of plant.

6. Low maintenance and noise reduction costs, low investment costs for plant and mechanical devices

7. Few moving parts in the biogas plant itself, thus reducing the costs of wear and tear

8. Highly developed, modern, computer-controlled system

9. Low process energy consumption (less than 10% of the energy produced in the co-generation unit)

10. High, good quality gas yields

11. Possibility of modular expansion

Use of the wheel loaders and the front-end loaders to fill and empty the digesters, and therefore potential use of the available equipment

Simple process that allows a large variety of non-organic substances (sand, wood, plastic, etc.) in the substrate throughout the digesting process; interfering substances can be sieved out after digestion

No costly storage of the digested substrates, as with liquid substances; cheaper transport costs
