==History==
==Technology==
The plant is a 3 line [[gasification]] plant, based on [[grate]] based technology by [[Biomass Power Limited]], generating steam to turbines delivering 86,724 MWe hours/year, or around 11MWe<ref>[https://enviroparks.co.uk/symphony/extension/richtext_redactor/getfile/?name=22c90d47ba9c2e54c3af26852d36e697.pdf Non-Technical Planning Summary]</ref>.


==Plant==
==Construction==
There is no information on the current status of funding or construction of the project in the public domain. The building for the waste reception and processing appears complete.


==Local Authority Users==
==Waste Input==
The plant is designed to run on 83,000 tonnes per annum of prepared [[RDF]] from offsite sources, and 155,0000 tonnes per annum of residual [[Household Waste]] and [[Commercial Waste]] prepared into an [[RDF]] in the adjacent fuel processing facility.
