Low carbon liquid fuel heating solution to take centre stage at OFTEC annual conference

During the event on Tuesday 18 June at The Hilton Puckrup Hotel near Tewkesbury, OFTEC CEO Paul Rose will update members and guests on the importance of taking action to support the decarbonisation of rural homes and the liquid fuel heating industry’s central role in achieving this.

OFTEC will be joined by Jason Woods, founding partner of energy consultancy group, In Perpetuum Partners, who will share the findings of the six-month research project they have now completed for OFTEC. This investigated the potential of liquid biofuels, provided detailed analysis of the oil-heated housing stock and included modelling which compared the rival low carbon energy solutions for these homes.
Technical director at Kiwa UK Group, Mark Crowther, who has provided guidance to the Committee on Climate Change, will also share an insight into the role hydrogen could play in decarbonising the heat and transport sectors.

At the AGM that follows the conference, Laurance Coey, Managing Director at Harlequin Manufacturing, will be appointed as the new OFTEC Chairman as Niall Fay steps down from the role following his two-year tenure.
