Event Description

The new Department of Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) needs to follow the science and remove subsidy from Biomass electricity, which is bad for the climate, forests, biodiversity and people. Drax alone will get around £600m a year which should be spent on real renewables. On 19th October, Biomassive will be telling that to the new department on the International Day of Action on Biomass.
