Welcome to Canford Renewable Energy
Canford Renewable Energy Limited (CRE) is an experienced long-term operator and developer of renewable energy infrastructure.
We have been operating a 7 MW landfill gas power station for 25 years at our site at Canford Resource Park, Dorset. The power station converts methane gas from the nearby closed landfill into electricity using spark ignition gas engines that achieve 90%+ levels of availability. The power station supplies renewable energy to all on-site users via a private wire electricity network. All surplus energy is exported to the local distribution network. At its peak the power station contributed to around 80% of Dorset’s renewable power.
Contact us to find out more and to discuss your options further.
Working in partnership with the Green Halo Partnership to provide green energy solutions in the south of England.
Our Services
Solar
Solar farms are designed to generate electricity locally and feed into the local electricity grid using a free source of energy (the Sun) to generate electricity on bright cloudy days as well as in direct sunlight.
Wind
Turning the wind’s energy into electricity requires the use of wind turbines placed in windy areas of open land or in shallow water surrounding the coast of the UK. Wind turbines are huge structures, typically around 150 metres tall, topped with two or three rotating blades.
Battery Storage for Environmentally Sustainable Energy
Storage batteries offer a viable solution for storing intermittent energy supplies associated with renewable energy. Cost is lowering as production increases, and the combination of renewable energy sources and battery storage appears to be the best option going forward for reducing environmentally unsustainable energy production.
Hydrogen
Green hydrogen can be converted into 100% emission-free electricity or can be added to natural gas and burnt in thermal power or district heating plants. It can be used to replace the industrial hydrogen that gets made every year from natural gas.
Biomass
Biomass is an attractive fossil-fuel alternative because it is a renewable resource that is more evenly distributed over the Earth’s surface than finite fossil-fuel energy sources such as coal, oil and natural gas, and may be developed using more environmentally friendly technologies.
Carbon Capture & Offsetting
Carbon capture is the process of trapping the carbon dioxide at its emission source, transporting it to a storage location (usually deep underground) and isolating it. Carbon offsetting is the reduction of emissions of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases from the atmosphere to compensate for emissions made elsewhere
Planting
Planting can be short, medium, or long-term options that can generate new income for landowners through grants, stewardship schemes and carbon finance.
