Sefter Farm AD Plant (Farm AD) - 1 MW Biomass Power Plant in the United Kingdom

Sefter Farm AD Plant (Farm AD) is a biomass power plant located in the United Kingdom, with coordinates 50.789000, -0.737300. It is owned and operated by Barfoots of Botley and has an operational status. With a capacity of 1 MW, it is a small-scale facility within the UK's renewable energy sector. The plant uses anaerobic digestion technology to process agricultural waste, generating electricity. As a biomass facility, it operates under the UK's regulatory framework, including the Renewable Obligation and environmental permitting. The UK has a strong focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and small-scale AD plants like this contribute to the country's renewable energy targets. This facility plays a role in managing agricultural waste locally while producing clean energy. It supports the UK's transition to a low-carbon economy and helps reduce reliance on fossil fuels. The plant's output is fed into the national grid, providing renewable electricity to the surrounding area.

The plant uses biomass, a renewable fuel, but combustion still emits CO2, though considered carbon-neutral if sourced sustainably. Its small capacity (1 MW) limits emissions. Located in a rural area, it has minimal impact on populated zones. The UK's strict environmental regulations, including emissions limits and waste management rules, ensure the plant operates with controlled environmental impact.
