FAQs
Why is internal process heat not eligible for the RHI?
Because the government suggests it has already received support under the scheme:
Chapter 3 of the government's RHI announcement says
Process heat
The RHI will only support a unit of heat once. Process internal heat that is part of the efficient operation of the plant will be excluded from the RHI and will not receive support. For example, condensate returns within a system and heat from the biogas boiler/engine used in the operation of an anaerobic digester will not be eligible for the RHI.
