Community hydroelectric projects damaged during floods remain offline
December flooding has wreaked havoc on two community hydroelectric projects in Lancashire, England. In Halton, on Dec. 6, the River Lune floodwaters shut down the 100-kW Halton Lune Hydro facility at Forge Weir. Twenty days later on Dec. 26, about 40 miles southeast of Halton in Whalley, floodwaters from the River Calder knocked the 100-kW Whalley Community Hydro project offline.

Why Anaerobic Digestion Is Environmentally Friendly
The constant battle to reduce greenhouse gases has resulted in a constant search for more environmentally focused waste disposal systems – from an influx of recycled materials being crafted into other useful objects, through to sourcing eco-friendly treatment systems for our waste water – finding new ways to protect the environment is high on everybody’s radar. The Effect Of Anaerobic Digestion It is this constantly reaching for better solutions that has driven Anaerobic digestion to where it is now. By combining biodegradable materials, we now have an additional process for creating electricity and organic compost. This means fewer fossil fuels will be burned to heat our homes, chemical fertilisers won’t be in such high demand and our food will have a milder treatment system in place.
