WRAP offer new support to AD operators

WRAP are now offering support for AD operators looking to develop secure markets or outlets for their digestate. Up to 5 days one to one support is available to AD operators either getting started, or for those who have already made some inroads. This is a WRAP funded pilot.

What is the aim?

• To ensure operators being supported learn the benefits of effective digestate management and planning i.e. gain a thorough understanding of the potential market(s), end user requirements, features and benefits of their own products etc.
• To develop the skills and knowledge to produce a product and service that the end market wants.
• To review potential digestate outlets and markets specifically available to AD operators.
• To increase the volume of PAS 110 digestate products sold/used in the UK by assisting AD operators to produce a fit for purpose product and effectively market/dispatch it to local agriculture and/or other markets.
• Ultimately to improve the standard of digestate management and market planning across the AD industry in the UK.
