Following the publication of the first Labour Government's budget on 30 October, Chris Huhne, chair of the Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA) and former Energy and Climate Change Secretary, said:
“Every business will have its own take on the mix of tax rises, but the continued emphasis on green growth is welcome. It would have been even better if there had been no mixed messages with the freeze on fuel duty, which modestly disadvantages the sector as people look at switching from diesel to biomethane as a fuel”.
“As the renewable sector with the second fastest global growth potential after solar, we will be engaging with the Government and Make UK to ensure a full appreciation of the growth opportunity that biogas and biomethane offer across the UK."
In recent months, ADBA has been stressing its ten key campaigning goals on behalf of the green gas sector of renewables, and says that they could all be easily implemented in the first year of a new government by using secondary legislation.
