[QUOTE="sjt01, post: 7496858, member: 30726"] Ours is a Marches (well, Russell was working for Greenfinch when we started the build). Lots of good points, but much of the original equipment replaced by something that works and is easy to maintain. AD will only work now on waste, or small scale using silage off the top and sides of a clamp, slurry etc, and probably only then if you utilise all the heat. We use it for grain drying, dairy hot water, cheese making heat, workshop heat, farmhouse, office, 3 farm cottages heat, and warm drinking water for cows. We grow maize and lucerne for the digester, but get FITs and RHI. Without that I would go for solar in the day, and use slurry and waste silage to make gas to run a chp when no sun, also when heat needed. Yield of electric per acre far better from solar than growing crops for AD. [/QUOTE]
