Summary
A Biomass Waste EFW facility located in Tansterne near Hull which is based on c.150,000 tonnes per annum of waste wood generating 22MW of electricity to the grid[1].
It was funded and developed by Irish renerwable energy company Solar 21 in partnership with Heat Recovery Solutions (HRS) Ltd[2]. The plant became fully operational in February 2018. The cost of the project was an estimated £35m[3].
In 2016 Probio Energy International won the contract to be sole supplier of the waste wood to the facility[4].
Plant
The biomass power plant utilises a fluidised bed combustion, heat recovery and power module technology developed by HRS, a subsidiary HRS Energy Ltd which was manufactured in Hull by project partner CF Struthers, the sister company to HRS Energy[5].
In September 2019 the O&M contractor HRS Energy Tansterne Ltd (HRSET) went into administration. HRSET had originally held the O&M contract until it expired on 01/09/73. The plant is now owner-operated by GIB-Bio Ltd which is a subsidiary of Solar 21, the owners of the facility[1].
