Energy from Waste

Some of our shredded waste wood is processed at a small biomass turbine. The plant provides enough electricity to the power requirement for about 450 homes. The plant runs on waste wood material gathered from the local area. The fuel includes low grade wood waste and it will thermally treat about 8,500 tonnes per year.
