The biomass power plant utilises a twin line fluidised bed [[gasification]] combustion system, heat recovery and power module technology developed by [[HRS]], a subsidiary [[HRS Energy Ltd]] which was manufactured in Hull by project partner [[CF Struthers]], the sister company to HRS Energy<ref>[https://www.letsrecycle.com/news/latest-news/probio-energy-wins-170000tpa-biomass-contract/ Lets Recycle]</ref>. Each line has a maximum throughput in the order of 16 tonnes per hour<ref>[https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/657559/Tansterne_biomass_plant_permit.pdf/ Environmental Permit], EA</ref>.

The plant has been built to be '[[CHP]] ready' so that when a district heating market becomes available, the provision of heat to supply a local network will be achievable without any modification to the installed system<ref>[https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/657559/Tansterne_biomass_plant_permit.pdf/ Environmental Permit], EA</ref>.

{{BioSustain|EPR={{#var: epr}}}}
The tonnage received by the plant primarily [[Wood Waste]] but there is no tonnage reported 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> by [[Ofgem]]. The [[Wood Waste]] tonnage received and recorded in the [[EA]] statistics for the calendar year (i.e. January 2018 to December 2018) was '''142,057''' tonnes.
