The firmus energy sustainability team led by Niall Martindale, CEO of firmus energy (2nd from left), were delighted to attend the Renewable Gas conference at the Titanic Hotel yesterday, hosted by Phoenix Energy . It was very encouraging to hear from the panel of local and international speakers of the importance that Biomethane will play in assisting Northern Ireland to meet its Net zero carbon targets. ♻ Not only was the availability of Biomethane in Northern Ireland reaffirmed but the importance that it will play in an Agri-Enabled economy was also outlined. 🍃 The panel looked forward to the publication of a Northern Ireland Biomethane Strategy so that producers, suppliers and customers can prepare for their future.

firmus energy reposted this
GNI (UK), part of Gas Networks Ireland, participated in an event at Stormont yesterday, advocating for the adoption of biomethane in Northern Ireland’s energy network. Represented by Gas Networks Ireland’s Director of Strategy and Regulation, Edwina Nyhan, GNI (UK) joined the other gas operators in Northern Ireland - Phoenix Energy , firmus energy, Mutual Energy and Evolve and explained to politicians the time was right to “grasp this incredible opportunity to accelerate Northern Ireland along the pathway to net zero”. The gas networks operators also jointly launched a short policy paper, ’Enabling a Greener Energy Future’, which focuses on the range of benefits to unlocking NI’s biomethane opportunity and calls for a regional biomethane target to be set, a capital support ‘Pathfinder’ to be set and a regulatory framework to be enabled. https://lnkd.in/eV27-Nsi
