==Summary==

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

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 Hardwicke<ref name="BIO" />.

Following the installation of the biomass facility, Markey 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" />.

==Plant==

The plant was commissioned by UK-based Indusvent Limited who were instructed to design, supply and install a complete turnkey project ~~whcih~~ 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 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" />.

==~~Local Authority Users~~==

==Tonnage Input/Fuel==

~~As this~~ is a ~~private~~ biomass ~~boiler served only~~ by ~~offcuts from~~ the ~~commercial organisation it serves, there are no local authority users~~.

The tonnage received by the plant is a mixture of [[Wood Waste]] off-cutss from its kitchen construction business and is essentially 'internal' material that is neither 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]] or the [[EA]] data for the calendar year (i.e. January 2018 to December 2018).
