  1. Plants in Partnership Samantha Fuller Women in Telecoms & Technology London, 10 January 2011

  2. We are developers and operators of biogas energy plants • Team built with unmatched UK experience • Development and construction finance available for multiple plants • Partnership model is key to access and deliver the best economic and sustainable plants

  3. Making sense of it all, finding the investments Source: www.internationalfuturesforum.com

  4. The macro Scene

  5. The interest in bio power from energy companies UK faces The Two Towers of Mordor! Security of supply Sustainable Fuels

  6. Major Investment Themes: Clean tech no longer just chemistry. Renewable energy not just dumb generation systems. CLEAN-TECHEXTENDING OUR CURRENT THINKING

  7. AGE OF…

  8. Age of Chemistry becomes Age of Biology 20th Century 21th Century

  9. Technology Changes today

  10. The concept of bridging technologies Getting on the bridge is clear We can see the middle Fog of future developments

  11. Examples of bio power horizons - the only horizon-stretching tech play. Mixed Waste to Solid Fuel (RDF) that can substitute for modest coal in CHP Yesterday’s technology (steam) moving to more sustainable fuels. Gas engines or Fuel Cells using Bio-gas, Today’s technology looking forward, still C02 emitting Microbial fuel cells with useful by-products? Future technology? What can we upgrade? (mature technologies) What can we build now? (known but not mass scale; solar, geotherm, ground source) Technology still in R&D? (Wave and Tidal)

  12. AGE OF…

  13. Age of dumb/slave becomes age of smart Electrolux smart fridge

  14. Smart Grid allows for a different energy set up: embedded, fast responding, partnerships.

  15. Major Investment Themes: Systems, connected, partnerships. Single building examples City wide examples Biology and Smart, lead to rise of systems

  16. The New Ground Rules: understanding interconnectivity Source: The IFF Interactive World Model www.internationalfuturesforum.com

  17. Our company’s Embedded Energy Solution – today! Local connectivity Local Biogas Plant Home Energy The same folk Organic waste from local homes and businesses Local Farms and Gardens (Fertiliser) The same folk

  18. Major Investment Themes: Urban Age Global Energy Patterns Infrastructure Infrastructure Migration

  19. Bioenergy in the city? OR crops in city and farming for bioenergy? Apartments, Austria Green Roofs Convention Centre, Vancouver, Canada

  20. First glimpse of integrating technologies.Urban Farms on amazing scale! • Chicago: lettuce, herbs and veggies. • Some numbers: • 12,000 square feet (0.11 ha) • Yields 20,000 lbs of veggies (9,000 kg) • Income $25/ft2 over cost $15/ft2. • Potatoes farming in central Tokyo. • Not your local allotment, this is full production scale. • Cooling the roof. • Some cities experimenting with gray water treatment and non edible plants.

  21. So how to graft on to this? Use existing buildings. 150,000 lbs soil (68 tonnes) • 20°C decrease in roof temp. • 9°C decrease in full building temp. • 30% less winter heating needed. Brooklyn, NY – professional farm. • Biogas perspective (today’s technology). • We look and say, ‘wow’ use for my organic fertiliser! • CHP (Fuel Cell or gas) – “super, use for my C02!” • Biogas and CHP look at each other and smile with the new friendship. • Still room for Solar Therm, Air S. Heat Pumps, smart devices and other friends. Montreal, Canada– professional farm.

  22. Migration uses old and new players • Old players: • Customer base • Customer handling capabilities (CRM). • Operations & Maintenance. • New Players. • Niche solutions • Highly skilled in new technologies. • Understand integrated solutions. • Commercially flexible, partnerships.

  23. Scale of “hardware” city sized, not room size. 36 MWhr Battery, is the entire building, paired with 40MW generation (solar and wind)

  24. Integrating it all – think your local utility can?
