The whole approach of generating eco-friendly electricity from cooking oil is one brilliant approach to save the world from energy crisis. In this process tanks of waste and unused cooking oil are disposed at four of the five Kirklees Council recycle centers. The next step involves Living Fuels, which collects the cooking oil to produce electricity for homes and offices in the UK.

 

According to a research conducted, it was deduced that many people pour the left over or unused oil down the drains which not only damages the environment in UK but cost around £15m every year to unblock the chocked drains. The residents of Kirklees are definitely taking very active steps toward saving the environment. Thanks to them and their efforts, now they can use cooking oil to generate electricity, thus making a much more sustainable future and helping to reduce climate change.

 

The recycling facilities at the council’s recycling centers are in Dewsbury, Birstall, Huddersfield and Meltham. The residents with four facilities now have a choice to save the environment by generating electricity that reduce the carbon emission and save taxpayers money.
