==Summary==
==Summary==
A [[Biomass Waste EFW]] facility processing 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 plant is 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).

==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
|-
| Other (Olive Pellets) || 4,968
|-
| Total||202,082
|}
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.
