There is no tonnage reported as received by the plant 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> reported by [[Ofgem]] as the plant only became fully operational in late 2019/early 2020. Equally there is no historical tonnage received and recorded in the [[NRW]] statistics as these are recorded and only available on a calendar year basis up to the end of 2018 (i.e. January 2018 to December 2018).
