Powering Progress: 70kW Waste-to-Energy CHP System Signed Off by SSE

A 70kW Combined Heat and Power (CHP) unit turning agricultural waste into reliable, grid-compliant electricity and heat — fully signed off by SSE.

Overview

In a major step forward for sustainable energy innovation, our team recently completed a successful test and commissioning of a 70kW Combined Heat and Power (CHP) unit — a cutting-edge system designed to generate clean electricity and heat entirely from agricultural waste. This project showcases how advanced renewable technology can turn everyday farm by-products into reliable, eco-friendly energy solutions.

About the Project

The newly installed CHP system operates using waste cow muck as its primary fuel source, demonstrating the enormous potential of waste-to-energy systems in reducing carbon emissions and maximizing resource efficiency. Imported directly from Belgium, this unit represents some of the most advanced engineering in renewable power generation currently available in Europe.

The testing phase was carried out meticulously, ensuring every performance and safety standard was met. The results exceeded expectations — the system achieved a consistent 70kW output, proving both its reliability and efficiency in converting waste materials into usable energy.

Partnership and Collaboration

This project was made possible through close collaboration between our engineering team, the DNO SSE, and our partners in Belgium. During the testing process, the SSE representatives officially signed off on the installation after confirming full compliance with all grid and safety standards.

“Thanks Dave for today — I could not have hoped for the testing to have gone any better. We have several other systems going in next year, and we want you to test those as well.”

Such recognition reinforces our commitment to quality and precision across all renewable energy installations.

Results and Impact

The 70kW CHP unit is a clear example of how innovation and sustainability can work together. By transforming agricultural waste into renewable power, this project not only supports energy independence but also contributes to a cleaner, greener future for rural industries.

Project highlights

  • 70kW continuous energy output from organic waste
  • Full DNO SSE approval after comprehensive testing
  • Reduced carbon footprint and sustainable waste management
  • Strong international collaboration with Belgian technology experts

Looking Ahead

Following the success of this installation, several additional CHP systems are already scheduled for deployment next year. Each will continue to build on this milestone, expanding renewable infrastructure and supporting the transition to sustainable power solutions across the UK and Europe.

  • Everything is transparent. It was very good.

    Pat Thompson

    Very informative, Dave is a wealth of knowledge and breaks the course down to make training simple.

    Richard Fitzgerald

  • The training was very informative and paced to suit our level of knowledge and experience. I would highly recommend the training for anyone looking at G99 relay testing.

    Thomas Jones

    I thoroughly enjoyed it and the lunch were a good position and laid out very nicely. I like my food, thank you very much.

  • First to give a bit of context, I had limited knowledge regarding G99 requirements and I’ve never done any protection relay testing before. But thanks to Dave, I really understand the purpose of the test and how to perform it on the G99 relay. It is also nice to have access to the online courses to expand my understanding on the G99 grid connection process.
