About

Defra Network eTendering Portal awarded a contract to Ricardo-AEA Ltd for a market study of coffee logs and other new and emerging fuels.

The study assessed the market size for coffee logs, lignite, pet coke, and other waste-based fuels, and their response to measures regulating domestic burning fuels introduced in May 2021.

These measures phase out traditional house coal and wet wood sold in units under 2m³ between 2021 and 2023, and set sulphur and smoke emission limits for manufactured solid fuels.

The research aimed to inform decisions on whether to commission further emissions research and introduce appropriate standards for these fuels, which are currently exempt from the new requirements and may be sold outside Smoke Control Areas.

The contract value was £59,559.
