Summary
A Biomass EFW located at Markey Group premises in Hardwicke, Gloucestershire, which generates 2.1MW from c. 2,300 tonnes of Wood Waste from its commercial business[1].
In 2012, Gloucester based Markey Group opened a £1.1m biomass facility which runs on waste wood generated by the subsidiary of Markey Group, Premiere Kitchens[1]. Each year Premiere Kitchens creates approximately 2,350 tonnes of waste wood in the form of extracted chipboard dust and residual off-cuts, which is used in the plant to generate all of the heating and hot water required for the company's site at Hardwicke[1].
Following the installation of the biomass facility, Markey Group were able to remove its mains gas supply and as a result the company reduces its carbon emissions by more than c.1,200 tonnes per year[1].
Plant
The plant was commissioned by UK-based Indusvent Limited who were instructed to design, supply and install a complete turnkey project which included a dust extraction and filtration system for production machinery, a sealed chipboard dust and chips transportation system, a 300m3 storage silo with hydraulic moving floor discharge, shredding of off-cuts and burning of the collected material to provide hot water and heating for both the office and factory heating[2]. The system features a 2.1 MW hot water boiler manufactured by Danish based Justsen Energiteknik A/S[1]. The burning of the Wood Waste in the boiler is controlled automatically to maximise efficiency with results monitored both on site and at the manufacturers premises in Denmark[1].
Tonnage Input/Fuel
The tonnage received by the plant is a mixture of Wood Waste off-cutss from its kitchen construction business and is essentially 'internal' material that is neither reported in the most recent Annual Sustainability Report for 2018-19[3] by Ofgem or the EA data for the calendar year (i.e. January 2018 to December 2018).
