We have a 33kw Biolectric ad plant, working well, covers 95% of electricity use and export too, no batteries fitted as not really needed because it runs all the time it would be of little benefit

The Madness :
Digesters are common here. It's a bit like having another herd of cows tho. Always needs feeding fixing or gets sick somehow. If you have a gas main direct injection into the system is an option. Turbines and panels are less tying. Batteries are coming in here but not at a big scale.

+3 a friend is building one of these. shipping container modified into an anaerobic digester is a modular waste-to-energy system. It breaks down organic waste like food scraps or manure using bacteria to produce biogas. This gas fuels a combined heat and power (CHP) engine to generate electricity directly on-site.

Firm local to me builds small scale slurry digesters with Storth, I spoke to the rep at lamma and I think he said they only physically become feasible around the 200 cow mark to make enough gas and then financially it’s nearly double that many cows to warrant the outlay, I don’t know what scale you guys are at but Storth would be a good first port of call

I see one guy charges his battery’s on low price night rate electricity and milks off them in the morning and charges the battery’s during the day off solar and milks in the afternoon off that charge then , sounds good in theory but I haven’t financials for you I’m afraid

Solar is a huge output of money, even with grants that eventually get paid.. I'm in Ireland and my taughts on Solar are very mixed... not sure it's worth it..

@fantasticboab :
Couple farmers in east Ayrshire have the solar with batteries an say positive things then there’s 2 slurry digesters in north Ayrshire that don’t get used now but not sure the reason

we've had solar panels on the house and they're great. Could also just have a big battery to always be on cheap rates

Could you do a mini hydro power scheme anywhere?

what if you bought a diesel generator and run it of burned oil

Solar in a year, especially this year its been great. The digester with a combined heat and power is what you're talking about, hard, very hard, to make them make economic sense vs solar

What's your biggest costs cooling milk or heating water two things u could do which doesn't amount to a Hugh amount of money is gas to heat your water and a heat recovery from cooling your milk. Am sure u would have plate cooler in. It does make a big difference.

Try Strathendrick Biogas out the back end of Balfron 👍 they “utilise the shite” from the dairy cows
