[Digestion] Barriers and Drivers to Bioenergy (Anaerobic Digestion) in the UK - Survey for my studies. You're views are very welcome

[William Mezzullo]

Dear All,

I was wondering whether I could plug my questionnaire on the forum. It is 
for my studies. I would very much appreciate any of your views if you have 
had AD experience in the UK. Please read below and follow the appropriate 
links (Please choose the link most appropriate to your background):

Barriers to Bioenergy ? Background of Research at the University of Bath

Research is currently being undertaken in examining the constraints that 
are placed on the development of bioenergy in the UK. The work forms part 
of a joint research effort funded by the UK Energy Research Centre and 
Great Western Research. The scope of the work is to conclude the most 
critical barriers to the development of bioenergy in the UK. We are 
contacting the various key individuals in the bioenergy industry to help 
identify and verify the most important barriers and drivers.

The purpose of the study is to examine the relationships between several, 
either unsuccessful or slow developing, bioenergy projects in the UK and 
obtain a perspective of reoccurring barriers. This information will then be 
used by stakeholders throughout the industry, providing solutions to the 
barriers. In addition, solutions will also be produced, to any possible 
problems preventing the drivers from being implemented.

Through consultation with individuals throughout the industry, we aim to 
identify, verify and analyse the key ‘barriers’ and ‘drivers’ to the 
development of the bioenergy industry in the UK. This methodology will be 
conducted throughout the supply chain of bioenergy development. The aim is 
to assess the constraining patterns that may emerge between the different 
stages of bioenergy development. The primary drivers and barriers to 
bioenergy development have been identified through initial research, and 
are proposed in the questionnaire.
