Leeds Low Emission Vehicle Exhibition & Conference 7th October 2010 Alternative Fuel Supplier of the Year 2008
Company overview • Gasrec has assembled a portfolio of exclusive technologies to • Produce Liquid Biomethane (LBM) from landfill and other waste streams • Use the LBM as cost effective, carbon neutral vehicle fuel • Market to fleet operators who require cost effective fuel solutions and want to enhance environmental credentials • Exploit current legislative drivers and public opinion • These technologies are patented, proven and commercial and are applicable to a global problem • Mission statement “To produce a carbon neutral fuel from society’s waste to power those vehicles and services essential to society”
Albury Production Plant • Albury produces circa 5000tpa of LBM • Capable of providing fuel for 150 HGVs or up to 500 LGVs • Sita UK operated landfill site receiving all of Surrey’s household and domestic waste • Sufficient biogas to operate the facility for 15 years
Why Liquid Biomethane? • LBM is a readily transported fuel with the following characteristics • Direct substitute for either LNG or CNG • Storable and transportable • Lowest carbon intensity of any readily available fuel • Vehicle fuel • Cheaper and cleaner than diesel, CNG or LNG • High percentage reduction in C02 emissions • Very dry compared to CNG • 1Kg of LBM provides the same energy as 1.2 litres of diesel
Environmental Benefits • Lowest carbon intensity of any alternative fuel • 90% reduction in Particulate Matter • 60% reduction in Nitrous Oxide • 50% reduction in Sulphur Dioxide • 30% reduction in engine noise • Hydrogen plus 1 carbon atom, 3 times the calorific value a third of the cost and available TODAY
Logistics for LBM • Readily stored and transported • Large quantities of energy can be moved easily (LBM has 611 times the energy content compared to its’ gaseous state) • Delivered direct to customer location, similar to a bunkered diesel operation • Security of supply guaranteed with LNG back-up
