The DTI consultation document, due at the end of July, is expected to suggest some 20 “technical changes” to the RO. Many will be minor “tidying up” of the wording. Some are expected to make it work better for small generators. The White paper intended that this revision would also look at possible changes of the biomass co-firing rules.

At this seminar the DTI will introduce the proposals made in its consultation document. The industry will then discuss and debate the major measures.

The Renewable Power Association is a trade association open to all companies supportive of the UK renewable energy industry. As well as biomass, biogas, tidal, wave, solar, marine technology, wind, hydro and energy from waste generators, there are members who specialise in the production of fuels and heat from renewable sources. Members also include equipment and service providers to the renewable energy industry, such as law firms, consultants, financiers, equipment manufacturers and supply agents.

The perspective of the RPA is that of the producer, regardless of fuel source and technology. We concentrate upon generic issues and common barriers whilst advocating a diverse range of Renewable Power development. Three aspects drive our efforts:

• Political Lobbying to create an environment conducive to Renewable Energy development
• Communication to governments, the media and the public
• Provision of Services to members

The RPA is a Company Limited By Guarantee.
