Quite agree and there are some small scale commercial plants around
about to produce bio-diesel from that source but HMG in its infinite
wisdom plonks almost as much duty on it as they do on dino-diesel.
Which means that it's not worth people traveling very far to get it or
producers to scale up production due to "lack of demand" if it was
10p/l cheaper there would be a demand...
They really need to put some serious effort into properly promoting
sustainable and viable carbon neutral or renewable energy sources,
along with proper energy conservation. They only pay lip service to
this at the moment.
