A big investment powering the upcoming food enterprise zone near Lincoln
Proposals for a new waste food anaerobic digestion plant on Hemswell Cliff Food Enterprise Zone could bring in more than £104 million investment to the area.
If built, the plant would create 6MW of electricity and/or 2,500cu/m of gas per hour which would be used to provide electricity, heating, biomethane and CO2 to West Lindsey District Council’s FEZ , the majority of which will occupy the applicant’s land holding. The applicant has already invested £52 million in the existing site which provides similar levels of gas and electric to the National Grid as well as liquid digestate to local farms for fertiliser.Elevation plans for the new anaerobic digestion plant.
“The current operations clearly demonstrate that commitment and the proposals will only enhance the progress of achieving those policies.
