==Summary==
==Summary==
A [[Biomass Waste EFW]] facility based upon the co-firing of [[Wood Waste]], virgin wood, forestry processing rejects and energy crops to generate 30MWe and 10MWth of energy for use in the grid and the adjacent [[Sembcorp]] site, as an ancillary operation to their 197MW Wilton Power Station<ref>[https://www.power-technology.com/projects/wood-burning/ Power Technology Website]</ref>. The plant consumes up to 300,000 tonnes per year of material, of which around 80,000 tonnes is [[Wood Waste]] supplied by [[UK Waste Wood Recycling]], a subsidiary of [[Enva]], from a nearby separate site.
A [[Biomass Waste EFW]] facility [[Brigg REP]] processes up to 250,000 tonnes per year of a range of [[Biomass]], but primarily straw and a limited amount of [[Wood Waste]] to generate up to 40MWe for export to the national grid<ref>[https://www.briggbiomass.com/brigg-renewable-energy-plant/ Brigg website]</ref>. The straw fuel is supplied under a 12 year agreement with [[Worldwide Farming Partnership]] (WFP) as well as other local and regional farmers.


The Wilton 10 facility was developed by [[Sembcorp Energy UK]] and was operational in the autumn of 2007 and at the time was the first large scale biomass power station to be built.  It is located in Teeside on the Wilton International Industrial Estate and is discrete from [[Wilton 11 EfW|Wilton 11]] which is a [[Residual Waste EFW]] project.
The plant was originally jointly owned by [[Burmeister & Wain Scandinavian Contractor A/S]] (BWSC) and [[Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners K/S]] (CIP), with senior debt refinancing completed in 2017 of £250m (including [[Royal Bank of Scotland]], [[Investec]], [[Aviva Investors]] and others) but in April 2021 it was confirmed that Octopus Renewables had bought the facility from the joint investors for an undisclosed fee<ref>ENDS April 2021</ref>.

Built under an [[EPC]] contract with [[Foster wheeler]] for a reported $55m (excluding the turbine and power island supplied by [[Siemens]]), the standard combustion technology is based on a fluidised bed system.  
Built under an [[EPC]] contract with [[Burmeister & Wain Scandinavian Contractor A/S]] (BWSC), construction commenced in early 2014 and commissioning and first power was delivered at the end of 2015 and formal opening in January 2016.  


==Tonnage Input/Fuel==
{{BioSustain|EPR={{#var: epr}}}}
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 8% of input):
{{EAIn|EPR={{#var: epr}}}}
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Biomass !! Tonnage (2018-19)
|-
| [[Wood Waste]] || '''15,239'''
|-
| Straw  || 132,339
|-
| Miscanthus || 23,755
|-
| Sawmill Residues || 2,308
|-
| Arboriculture and Forestry Residues || 19,638
|-
| Short Rotation Coppice|| 3,835
|-

|}
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 no figures were available for the period.
