The steep increase in prices is primarily driven by higher demand from European Power Stations.  Such as new power station coming online in the Netherland, Belgium, and Italy.  And existing Power stations such as the huge UK Drax power station burning more wood pellets and burning less coal. This trend is set to increase due to a number of factors: The EU climate change targets for reducing its greenhouse emissions, transforming the EU carbon-based fuel (coal) police towards a low carbon economy by 2050.  With targets for the reductions of greenhouse emissions is set for 2020 and 2030.

Secure your online wallets & be careful with online services

You should be wary of any service designed to store your money online. Many exchanges and online wallets suffered from security breaches in the past and such services generally still do not provide enough insurance and security to be used to store money like a bank.

British Power Generator Drax creates world first Carbon Capture on its wood pellet power plant

Drax’s wood pellet power station has started to capture all C02 produced from the combustion of its wood pellets feedstock. A small demonstration plant located in a facility near Selby, North Yorkshire is capturing the C02 by using an amine-free solvent-based process called C-capture. C-capture was developed by the University of Leeds in conjunction with Drax who invested £400,000 in developing the plant. The Director of Engineering of C-Capture. Said “Working at this scale is really where the engineering gets interesting. The challenge now is to get all the information we need to design and build a capture plant 10,000 times bigger. It’s only really when we get to those sorts of scales that we can start to have an impact on the climate.”  James Grainger of Ecocrops Internationa l said the implication for the wood pellet market is enormous as it will change wood pellets from being carbon neutral fuel source to being carbon positive fuel source. www.ecocropsinternational.com
