The operations & maintenance for the facility is being carried out by [[Stantec]]<ref name="ref1" />. Construction commenced in 2015 and Ince Bio Power became fully operational in March 2015<ref name="ref2" />.

==Plant==
The facility utilises [[Outotec]]’s fluidised bed advanced [[Gasification]] technology, which is an [[Advanced Conversion Technology]]. The [[EPC]] services for the project were provided by a joint venture between [[MWH Treatment Limited]] and [[Black & Veatch Limited]]<ref name="ref1" />.

The construction and initial operations of the facility were managed by [[CoGen]], and funding was provided by [[Bioenergy Infrastructure Group]] Limited<ref name="ref1" />.

==Tonnage Input/Fuel==
The tonnage received by the plant is reported as [[Wood Waste]] 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>. Because the plant is an [[Advanced Conversion Technology]] and produces a [[Syngas]] the sustainability report talks in terms of the gas input to the energy recovery system, rather than the unprocessed [[Wood Waste]] into the plant, which was 181,876,041 cubic meters.
The [[Wood Waste]] is exclusively supplied by [[Ince Park Renewables]] which sources much of the [[Wood Waste]] from [[Waste Disposal Authorities]]. The [[Wood Waste]] tonnage received and recorded in the [[EA]] statistics for the calendar year (i.e. January 2018 to December 2018) was '''18,650''' tonnes.
