An eligible ACT station for [[ROC]] or [[FIT]] is a generating station which generates electricity by the use of [[Advanced Fuel]] (gas or liquid formed by [[Gasification]] or [[Pyrolysis]] of [[Biomass]] or Waste). Most existing ACT plants produce a gaseous product known as [[Syngas]] (i.e. a mixture of methane, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other hydrocarbon gases). However, there are some processes in development that either produce combustible liquids or mixtures of combustible liquids and gases<ref> Defra, 2018.
