==Summary==
Goosey Lodge is a biomass waste EfW generating 16MWe to the grid. It is located in Wymington near Rushton in Northamptonshire. The plant is able to combust a wide range of feedstock including solid and liquid animal by-products, fuels and waste wood and has a permitted tonnage threshold of 438,000 tonnes per annum<ref>[https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/614334/Variation_notice.pdf/ Permit Variation Notice], EA</ref>.

Goosey Lodge biomass facility utilises two bubbling fluidised bed combustor systems which ensures that any liquids and sludges with high Biological or Chemical Oxygen Demands (BOD and COD respectively) can be oxidised efficiently<ref name="GOO">[http://www.ancillarycomponents.co.uk/wykinc.html/ Ancillary Components]</ref>. Each fluidised bed incinerator has a capacity of up to 25 tonnes per hour equating to a maximum throughput of 438,000 tonnes per annum<ref>[https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/614334/Variation_notice.pdf/ Permit Variation Notice], EA</ref>.

==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<ref>[https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/publications-and-updates/biomass-sustainability-dataset-2018-19 Biomass Sustainability Dataset 2018-19]</ref> [[Ofgem]] reported the following fuel received ([[Wood Waste]] representing 7% of input):
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Biomass !! Tonnage (2018-19)
|-
| [[Wood Waste]] || '''3,774'''
|-
| [[MBM]] || 51,134
|-
| Other || 0
|-
| Total||54,908
|}
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) and were '''33,821''' tonnes.
