Company

Overview

It operates one of the UK’s largest power stations, originally coal‑fired in the 1970s and converted to biomass.
It sources, manufactures and ships wood pellets from North America to fuel its biomass operations, intertwining forestry, logistics and energy.
Key projects include biomass conversion trials (like willow co‑firing in 2004), development of hydro‑electric and pumped‑storage sites, and global pellet facilities.
Its expertise spans power generation, biomass supply chains, hydro storage, infrastructure logistics and renewable energy markets.
Notably, it markets ash by‑products for construction, turning waste into materials for roads and blocks—closing the loop on power‑by‑product use.
