Summary

A Biomass Waste EFW facility based on c. 25,000 tonnes per annum of Wood Waste generating 2.5MWe to the grid (or 2.33MWe and 10.9MWth)[1].

The Troon site was developed by Glennon Brothers Ltd to process residues from their adjacent sawmill, one of the largest in the UK, and provides heat to dry processed wood and has been operating since 2017. It is located in Troon harbour, at the old Adam Wilson & Sons Sawmill.

Plant

The project was delivered by URBAS Energietechnik, using their combustion grate technology[2] at a reported capital cost of £14m[3].

Tonnage Input/Fuel

The tonnage processed by the plant is a mixture of Wood Waste off-cuts from its adjacent sawmill and is essentially 'internal' material that is neither reported in the most recent Annual Sustainability Report for 2018-19[4] by Ofgem or the EA data for the calendar year (i.e. January 2018 to December 2018).
