Utilizing Silage Crops for Gas Plants and Anaerobic Digestion

The chapter explores the use of silage crops as feedstock for gas plants and anaerobic digestion to support the UK government's decarbonisation goals. It discusses challenges with certain crops like maize, benefits of herb-rich leys for sustainable feedstock, and the process of converting grass into gas through anaerobic digestion. The conversation also delves into generating energy in the UK using renewable sources like grassland for anaerobic digestion and solar farms, considering factors like land requirement, Brexit impact, grid capacity, and ecological benefits.
