Important notice: Website update - 20th of January 2025
We're merging our website with our main site and to offer a more streamlined experience. To make the switch smooth, this website will be unavailable for maintenance today. This means you won't be able to purchase publications. Don't worry, everything will be available on the new site by the end of the day. To avoid any hiccups, we recommend holding off on purchases until then. Thank you for your patience, and see you on the new site soon!
Renewables
The EI has developed a number of publications relating to renewable fuels and renewable power generation.
We have taken a leading role in researching the impacts that biofuels may have in the distribution chain, with the development of applicable guidance for distribution and marketing operations, environmental analysis and assessing microbial growth.
Furthermore the EI are in working in partnership with the G+ Offshore Wind Health and Safety Organisation (G+) to develop a programme of good practice guidance on health and safety issues in the offshore wind sector and with SafetyOn, the health and safety organisation for the Onshore wind on a programme of health and safety good practice for the onshore wind sector in the UK.
If you are interested in purchasing any of the publications in this area in hard copy format, please contact: gplus@energyinst.org
