Brigg Biomass EFW - source cipartners.dk

Summary

A Biomass Waste EFW facility processing up to 250,000 tonnes per year of a range of Biomass, but primarily straw and a limited amount of Wood Waste to generate up to 40MWe for export to the national grid. The straw fuel is supplied under a 12 year agreement with Worldwide Farming Partnership (WFP) as well as other local and regional farmers.

The plant is jointly owned by Burmeister & Wain Scandinavian Contractor A/S (BWSC) and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners K/S (CIP), with senior debt refinancing completed in 2017 of £250m (including Royal Bank of Scotland, Investec, Aviva Investors and others).

Plant

Built under an EPC contract with Burmeister & Wain Scandinavian Contractor A/S (BWSC), construction commenced in early 2014 and commissioning and first power was delivered at the end of 2015 and formal opening in January 2016.

Tonnage Input/Fuel

The tonnage received by the plant is a mixture of Biomass and in the most recent Annual Sustainability Report for 2018-19 Ofgem reported the following fuel received (Wood Waste representing 8% of input):

Biomass	Tonnage (2018-19)
Wood Waste	15,239
Straw	132,339
Miscanthus	23,755
Sawmill Residues	2,308
Arboriculture and Forestry Residues	19,638
Short Rotation Coppice	3,835
Other (Olive Pellets)	4,968
Total	202,082

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) although no waste tonnage was recorded by the site in the waste returns.
