==Summary==
A [[Biomass EfW]] facility based on 55,000 tonnes per annum of waste wood producing 6.5 MWe gross power to be exported to the national grid. This facility is a [[Combined Heat and Power]] (CHP) plant, enough heat is produced and harnessed to supply approximately 6,700 local homes and commercial properties.

The technology utilised in this facility is two water-cooled moving grate furnaces that are supplied by Turboden Srl (part of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Group). Turboden Srl also supplied the ‘organic rankine cycle’ (ORC) turbogenerators with air condensers for the facility which uses ‘organic fluid’ vapour as the driving force for the turbine within a closed loop heating circuit<ref name="ref1" />.

==Tonnage Input/Fuel==
The tonnage received by the plant is only [[Wood Waste]] [[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:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Biomass !! Tonnage (2018-19)
|-
| [[Wood Waste]] || '''21,188'''
|-
| Other || 0
|-
| Total||21,188
|}
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.
