Written Question
Energy: Waste
Thursday 23rd June 2022

Asked by: Baroness McIntosh of Pickering (Conservative - Life peer)

Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the possibility of retrofitting homes to enable them to use energy created from waste.

Answered by Lord Callanan - Shadow Minister (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

Biomethane is produced from organic waste such as food waste, manures and slurries, and sewage. The Government supports biomethane production and injection from anaerobic digestors into the gas grid through the Non-Domestic Renewable Heat Incentive, which closed to new applicants in March 2021; and through the Green Gas Support Scheme (GGSS) which launched on 30 November 2021. No specific retrofitting of homes is required.
