==Tonnage Input/Fuel==
The tonnage 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> was reported by [[Ofgem]] as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Biomass !! Tonnage (2018-19)
|-
| [[Wood Waste]] || '''29,016'''
|-
| Other || 0
|-
| Total||29,016
|}
The [[Wood Waste]] is received from a variety of sources. 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 was '''29,151''' tonnes.
