A Biomass | A [[Biomass EfW]] facility [[Stevens Croft]] is a [[CHP]] plant based on processing up to 480,000 tonnes per annum of [[Wood Waste]] and [[Biomass]]<ref name="SC" />. The plant was developed and is owned by [[E.ON UK]] and cost an estimated €132m<ref name="tech">[https://www.power-technology.com/projects/stevenscroftbiomass/ Power Technology]</ref>. | ||
Steven's Croft is located in Lockerbie Scotland, has an output of 44 MWe to the grid and 6.5 MWth, the facility supplies c. 70,000 homes, displacing 140,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases<ref name="SC" />. | Steven's Croft is located in Lockerbie Scotland, has an output of 44 MWe to the grid and 6.5 MWth, the facility supplies c. 70,000 homes, displacing 140,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases<ref name="SC" />. | ||

The power plant can reach full output with high moisture fuels. It is able to burn a maximum of 20% recycled wood (limited by Planning and its [[The Pollution Prevention and Control (Scotland) Regulations 2012|IPPC Permit]]) and a maximum of 20% short rotation coppice. [[Moisture Content]] for the plant is between 46% and 58%, with a design blend of 53%<ref name="tech" />. | The power plant can reach full output with high moisture fuels.
