Wilton 10 - Sembcorp Biomass Power Station
The Sembcorp Biomass Power Station on Teesside, which uses wood as fuel, offers farmers and landowners in Yorkshire and the north east of England the opportunity to diversify into the production of the energy crop short rotation willow coppice (SRC).
Its designers say it will emit around 200,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide a year LESS than a conventional power station - the equivalent in greenhouse gas reduction terms of taking 67,000 cars off Britains roads.
So how big is your carbon footprint? Kelley Price takes a look at the average Teessider’s carbon footprint - and how the region’s innovators are helping us to shrink it. (WILTON 10) Source: gazette, Date and Time of entry: Wednesday, December 02, 2009 23:18
