About us
Harworth Energy was established to provide project development, design and Consultancy services to Clients in a wide range of fields. We prefer to work in partnerships with selected Clients, where we can share the risk as well as the reward in any task.
The Harworth Energy team was originally formed from within UK Coal PLC, to maximise the organisation’s use of its waste and renewable resources for revenue generation. Personnel were selected from the power generation and process industry, and from within the UK coal mining industry for their specialist experience in coal mining safety, ventilation and gas drainage.
This combination of both, energy utilisation specialists and ventilation / gas drainage specialists led to rapid success in development and execution of power generation projects. The UK Emissions Trading scheme was set up in 2000 and from 2001-2006 ran as the predecessor to the EU Emissions Trading scheme. The team were successful in applying for this scheme, and in the first coal mine methane CO2e abatement scheme in the world, the Engineers designed, developed, installed and operated coal mine methane utilisation plant and destruction flares to reduce emissions to atmosphere by over 2,000,000 tonnes CO2e across 5 years.
Existing modern technology formed the base for the utilisation, the equipment was modified and optimised specifically to cope with the high dirt and water loading in the fuel gas, and to allow the equipment to continue to operate despite rapid fluctuations in quality, pressure and flow.
As part of ongoing projects our Engineers have experience in design and development of wind farm project development, power generation from waste coal, biomass power generation, liquid biofuel power generation, fuel switch for power generation, coke oven gas power generation, domestic and clinical waste incineration and safety management.
Since 2007 Harworth Energy has opened up its business to provide services to Clients worldwide, and is a completely separate entity to UK Coal Plc.
We have provided services internationally to leaders in their chosen markets, such as Climate Change Capital and ArcelorMittal Steel, in countries as diverse as the Peoples Republic of China, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Russian Federation, Ukraine, UK, USA.
