Sustainable Innovation In Action

The generation of biogas from waste has exciting potential as a renewable energy source. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the gas can significantly impact the efficiency and uptime of the Biogas upgrading plant. At Camlin our renewables division is developing innovative solutions for the online monitoring and removal of VOCs at biogas sites.

Camlin in the community

At Camlin we believe that economic prosperity is essential for communities to thrive and we recognise the important role we have to play in this. Our community programme supports disadvantaged young people through a range of professional and personal development activities helping them on their journey to bright and active futures.

We’ve partnered with local organisations such as YouthAction’s Rainbow Factory and Include Youth Northern Ireland to provide mentoring and skills development, workplace introductions and performing arts projects on mental health.

Community Safety

Storms can damage sections of the HV overhead distribution network, posing significant safety risks to the public and repair teams. Faults are often hard to locate in rural areas, increasing the time to restore supply and leaving damaged lines in unsafe conditions. LineSIGHT is our advanced monitoring system that helps DNOs pinpoint downed lines and reduce danger for the public.
