The difference between the ONS data and the [[Ofgem]] data above, i.e. 213 sites (adjusted from the 221 sites with the time error data highlighted above), can be inferred to be those AD plants that are producing biomethane rather than electricity (assuming their other datasets align). | The difference between the ONS data and the [[Ofgem]] data above, i.e. 213 sites (adjusted from the 221 sites with the time error data highlighted above), can be inferred to be those AD plants that are producing biomethane rather than electricity (assuming their other datasets align). | ||
