Thetford, at 38.5MW, is the largest chicken litter fuelled plant in the world and is Europe's largest biomass fuelled electricity generator. The plant is located at the centre of England's poultry producing region and consumes 420,000 tonnes of litter each year. The litter sourcing is managed by a dedicated EPR team. High quality fertiliser is produced at the plant that is marketed through a group wholly owned subsidiary, Fibrophos. The plant was designed to benefit from the experience gained at the two earlier plants at Eye and Glanford. At its heart is an extremely reliable and robust chain grate, spreader stoker combustion system. Steam conditions are 450°C and 65 bar. EPR Thetford operates and maintains the plant. The plant is located off Mundford Road, Thetford, Norfolk. Click to see more detail... Click here for map of location... go back... |
