Summary

A Biomass Waste EFW facility located in Tansterne, near Hull, which is based processing up to 150,000 tonnes per annum of Wood Waste generating 22MW of electricity to the grid[1].

It was funded and developed by Solar 21 in partnership with Heat Recovery Solutions (HRS) Ltd[2]. The plant became fully operational in February 2018. The cost of the project was an estimated £35m[3].

In 2016 Probio Energy International won the contract to be sole supplier of the Wood Waste to the facility[4].

Plant

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[5]. Each line has a maximum throughput in the order of 16 tonnes per hour[6].

In September 2019 the O&M contractor HRS Energy Tansterne Ltd (HRSET) went into administration. HRSET had originally held the long term O&M contract. The plant is now owner-operated by GIB-Bio Ltd which is a subsidiary of Solar 21, the owners of the facility[1].

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[7].

Tonnage Input/Fuel

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[8] 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.
