A biomass EFW located at Markey Group premises in Hardwicke, Gloucestershire which generates 2.1MW from c. 2,300 tonnes of waste wood from its commercial business<ref name="BIO">[https://www.bioenergy-news.com/news/markey-group-opens-1-1m-biomass-facility/ Bioenergy News]</ref>.
A [[Biomass EfW]] facility, [[Markley Group Biomass]] is located at [[Markley Group]] premises in Hardwicke, Gloucestershire, which generates 2.1MW from c. 2,300 tonnes of [[Wood Waste]] from its commercial business<ref name="BIO" />.


In 2012, Gloucester based Markey Group opened a £1.1m biomass facility which runs on waste wood generated by the subsidiary of Markey Group, Premiere Kitchens<ref name="BIO" />. Each year Premiere Kitchens creates approximately 2,350 tonnes of waste wood in the form of extracted chipboard dust and residual off-cuts, which is used in the plant to generate all of the heating and hot water required for the company's site at Herdwicke<ref name="BIO" />.

Following the installation of the biomass facility, Markley Group were able to remove its mains gas supply and as a result the company reduces its carbon emissions by more than c.1,200 tonnes per year<ref name="BIO" />.

The plant was commissioned by UK-based Indusvent Limited; the system features a 2.1 MW hot water boiler manufactured by Danish based Justsen Energiteknik A/S<ref name="BIO" />. the burning of the waste wood in the boiler is controlled automatically to maximise efficiency with results monitored both on site and at the manufacturers premises in Denmark<ref name="BIO" />.
The plant was commissioned by UK-based [[Indusvent Limited]] who were instructed to design, supply and install a complete turnkey project which included a dust extraction and filtration system for production machinery, a sealed chipboard dust and chips transportation system, a 300m<sup>3</sup> storage silo with hydraulic moving floor discharge, shredding of off-cuts and burning of the collected material to provide hot water and heating for both the office and factory heating<ref>[http://www.indusvent.com/project-installations/biomass/energy-efficient-2-1-mw-biomass-plant-for-premiere-kitchens.aspx Indusvent Website]</ref>.

The tonnage received by the plant is a mixture of [[Wood Waste]] off-cuts from its kitchen construction business and is essentially 'internal' material that is not reported in the [[Annual Sustainability Report]] data.
