Renewable Energy: Landfill
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps he is taking to help maintain the landfill gas to energy sector.
Answered by Michael Shanks
The Government is aware that the expiration of Renewables Obligation accreditation may affect the commercial viability of generators from a range of technologies, including landfill gas generators.
Officials are continuing to assess the impact that the end of Renewables Obligation support will have on security of supply, clean power 2030 and the environment, and we are working with the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs to consider options.
No decisions have been made on future support for landfill gas generators.
