Founded in 1992, the company was newly established as UTS Biogastechnik GmbH under the leadership of Dr. Andrew Benedek in 2007. Since that time the company has grown continually so that within the last 15 years, UTS has become one of the leading companies in the field of renewable energies.
The company´s know-how is reflected in numerous patents and protected techniques. They have informed us that they now have more than 1,500 biogas plants equipped with UTS technology. They have said that operators continually rely on the quality and dependability of UTS products and solutions, and with that many installations using their products they must have more experience than more or less anyone else.
At the moment you can find them, and their products and reference plants in several European countries: Germany, Czech Republic, United Kingdom, Italy and Hungary.

The UTS Biogastechnik Group of companies were extended by another subsidiary on December 1, 2008. UTS Biogas Ltd., with Rob Heap as General Manager, is located in North Yorkshire, near Scarborough and will provide full support to biogas markets in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Rob Heap has many years of experience in the agricultural and allied industries.
The CEO of the parent company, Dr. Andrew Benedek, said: “It is now the right time to enter this very interesting and rapidly expanding market.
UK Government plans to support renewable energies are well developed and already the first bills have been accepted by Parliament. It is their belief that this act will certainly help with climate change and, most importantly, will also significantly help local environments by turning waste into energy.”
Currently, the biogas sector in the UK is hardly developed – compared to other European markets. First developments show that mostly small – medium output plants are appealing to potential customers.
UTS has over sixteen years experience in building reliable plants in this range and can also support the market as the plants in the larger megawatt become important.
With the full support of the parent company situated in Germany, Rob Heap and the UTS team want to offer their future customers a total-solutions concept including feasibility, planning, design & build, operating, training and complete after-sales support following hand-over of the plant. Rob’s view is that “With the vast experience, flexible approach and advanced technical standards of UTS-products, we can deliver more reliable plants and comprehensive supporting services to the UK & Irish markets than those that have been available before.”
