Facing the UK’s bioethonol industry, after a government decision not to offer the rescue package to the sector.
The two major producers of the country, the ENSS plant in the raids on plow-based vivo fuels and tesides, have warned that they would be forced to shut down without the support of the government, to allow us to tariff-free after a deal.
Associated British Foods (ABF), who owns Vivogo, stated that the government’s decision not to support the “major national property” was “deeply regrettable”.
The government said that it worked closely with companies since June, but had decided not to provide them “taxpayer funds in national interest”.
In May, the US-UK Trade Pact removed 19% tariffs in a 1.4BN liter quota on the US-imported ethanol from the US. This is equal to the current size of the UK market.
The firms have earlier stated that the trade agreement made its businesses “commercially unattractive”.
Vifergo said it had presented the government with a plan to return the firm for profitability.
“In making this decision, the government has thrown the billions in a possible growth in Hamber, a sovereign ability in clean fuel that had a chance to lead the world.”
It said that jobs in clean energy will now move forward abroad.
The firm said, “This plant should always be beneficial under the right regulator environment, as displaying similar plants in Western Europe.”
German -owned ENS has also been contacted for comment.
Two plants employ 270 people, but their closed supply chain may affect thousands of more.
A government spokesperson said that “after working with companies for weeks to understand the financial challenges faced in the last decade, the government had taken a difficult decision to not offer direct funding” as it would not provide value to the taxpayer or solve long -term problems.
The government said that it is believed that it was “a difficult time for workers and their families” and said that it would work to support the trade unions, local partners and companies affected by companies.
A fuel made of bioethaneol, wheat, corn or beet, E10 is added to the E10 petrol in fuel.
Sources within the industry said that the government damages the industry by delaying petrol migration with high bioethaneol content.
The government has earlier stated that by 2030, it wants 10% of all the fuel used in the aircraft to come from sustainable sources, one of which is bioethonol.
The bioethanol industry buys thousands of tonnes of wheat from the UK fields, and ENSS also produces 30% of the UK commercial carbon dioxide – used in soft drinks, medical and nuclear industries.
The government said it will continue to work on measures to ensure the flexibility of the CO2 supply chain.
