Summary
An EfW facility based upon Gasification technology. The Drakelow site is near Burton Upon Trent on an old demolished coal-fired power station site owned by EON, was originally developed by Future Earth Energy, but reached financial close with Vital Energi in February 2020. Vital Energi will also take the project forwards and act as the operator when built[2].
Technology
The plant is understood to be a 3 line, grate based technology by Biomass Power Limited which is now part of Vital Energi, generating steam to turbines delivering 18MWe gross (15MWe net) and will be CHP enabled.
Construction
The plant is to be delivered by Vital Energi and is due to be operational in 2023 [3].
Waste Input
The plant is listed to run on 169,000 tonnes per year of prepared RDF from offsite company Beauparc under an exclusive Fuel Supply Agreement.
