Built and commissioned in 1992, the plant was converted with assistance from [[K.E.M]] in 2017 to add fuel flexibility to enable it to receive [[Wood Waste]]. The conversion comprised fuel feeding, combustion grate system and slag transport system  - the boiler supplies 58tonnes/hour of steam at 66 bar(g) and 450<sup>o</sup> to a steam turbine for power production<ref>[https://www.kem.dk/cases/eye-power-station-uk/ KEM Website]</ref>.

The tonnage received by the plant is a mixture of [[Biomass]] and in the most recent [[Annual Sustainability Report]] for 2018-19<ref>[https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/publications-and-updates/biomass-sustainability-dataset-2018-19 Biomass Sustainability Dataset 2018-19]</ref> [[Ofgem]] reported the following fuel received ([[Wood Waste]] representing 41% of input):

The [[Wood Waste]] is received from a variety of sources. The [[Wood Waste]] tonnage received cannot be directly compared with the stated historical tonnage received and recorded in the [[EA]] statistics as these are recorded on a calendar year basis (i.e. January 2018 to December 2018) and were '''43,573''' tonnes.
