Rapeseed Oil Briquettes Trialled at the L&B

A trial of a potential coal replacement fuel, using the residue (called expeller) of cold pressing Rapeseed, has taken place. This fuel comes in the form of briquettes and is produced by Grovetree Group, part of the Phoenix Group of companies, based in Nottingham.


A quantity of the briquettes was offered free of charge for trialling by company secretary, Phil Thompson, who personally delivered the fuel to Woody Bay.
