Green School Fuel On Trial

摘要

The carbon footprint for Norfolk is about to shrink, with the introduction of a ground-breaking system using biofuel for heating. The county council is taking part in a 12-month trial with the University of East Anglia and the oil industry, using mixes of biodiesel and kerosene to heat seven schools in the region, Gressinghall Museum, and private homes. It is the first time the fuel mixes have been used in existing heating systems. Ian Roe, the county council's business co-ordinator for environment and waste, said: 'The trial is to look at how effective it is to use a biofuel mix in heating.'
