Energy

New Earth set up its energy business in late 2008 to close the loop between waste treatment and energy recovery and achieve a first-to-market position in the successful commercial application of advanced thermal energy recovery technologies, namely gasification and pyrolysis. We are targeting developments in the sector for the generation of renewable energy from refuse-derived fuels (RDF) produced by our own waste treatment facilities and also third party sources. We are pursuing development opportunities throughout the UK to complement the New Earth portfolio of waste facilities.

Strong policy support exists for the diversion production of renewable energy to achieve national (UK) and EU policy objectives:

• The EU has set an objective for 20% of its total energy use (electricity, heat and transport) to be generated from renewable sources by 2020
• The UK Government has been allocated a target that 15% of the UKs energy requirement be provided from renewable sources by 2020. Current UK performance is 3.8% (2011)
• The Renewables Obligation Order incorporates strong fiscal support for renewable energy schemes

New Earth is well positioned to benefit from this strong policy support with a process that is capable of delivering a range of scalable biomass and waste to energy solutions, allowing it to tailor solutions to individual projects or customer circumstances. Our modular approach can be used to match local conditions, such as availability of waste streams to produce our ready to use fuel, local energy requirements for electricity and heat and other potential geographical constraints.

New Earth Energy Limited should not be confused with New Earth Renewable Energy Inc, an American company which has no links with the New Earth group of companies based in Dorset in the United Kingdom.
