Renewable energy

Producing straw that’s converted into electricity. 

Harvesting straw to generate renewable electricity

We harvest and bale straw, which we then supply to straw fired power stations. The straw is burnt to create a high-pressure, high steam, which will drive a steam turbine so that electricity is generated. This electricity is then fed back into the national grid and used to power businesses and homes across the country.

We provide a full straw baling and clearing service.

As we operate our own balers, chasers and lorries to provide a complete straw clearing service to ensure farmland is cleared rapidly with minimum compaction.

It also means that we have full control over the efficiency and cleanliness of the machines, which is becoming increasingly critical because machinery can act as a vector for seed, including blackgrass. By baling straw, it makes a big difference when it comes to the battle we are currently having in terms of blackgrass control, as it gets rid of any material that has the possibility of returning blackgrass seed back to the soil.

Straw makes exceptional fuel

Straw is a great choice when it comes to fuel in the UK. Straw is a renewable and natural resource. Not only does it present ecological benefits, but it supports local resources as well. The challenges that our planet faces are well-documented, and it is critical that we look for ways to move toward a more sustainable future.

Renewable energy resources are critical here, and we are seeing more and more homes and businesses being powered via biomass and other renewable sources. By providing us with your wood waste, you can play a massive role in this.

Who receives our harvested bale and straw?
