Based in Edinburgh, Celtic Renewables is the first company to create biofuel from whisky by-products. Only 10% of what flows out of a distillery is future whisky: the rest is mainly draff and pot ale. Celtic Renewables combines these by-products to create high-value renewable products, including biobutanol.

The whisky industry produces an estimated 1,600 million litres of pot ale and 500,000 tonnes of draff each year. That’s a lot of alternative fuel.
