Grand Launch of the Rice Straw Bioenergy Hub (RSBH) 'Empowering Rice Farming through Straw Innovations' on 7 October 2025 at the Straw Innovations Ltd. site in Pila, Laguna in the Philippines.
The Supergen Bioenergy Hub and Aston University together with project partners Straw Innovations, Koolmill and SEARCA international partnership, funded by Innovate UK, is tackling the dual challenge of agricultural waste and rural energy access—by turning rice straw, often burned as waste, into a valuable source of clean bioenergy.
The event showcased the newly developed cutting-edge rice straw harvesting technologies of Straw Innovations, and the collaborative outputs of this Philippines-UK innovation partnership.
