Spreadsheet tool for
calculating energy and GHG emissions
The AD tool provides a way of
calculating energy use and production across a whole farm,
with or without a digester. Details of the farm are entered
including crop areas, livestock numbers and nutrient
requirements. Most inputs have recommended values but these can
be substituted with user inputs. If a digester is installed it
is possible to select the feedstock inputs, including imported materials.
Various options are given for biogas use and digestate
application.
