Alexandra Dock Biomass Power Station- Renewable energy project in Merseyside area, Liverpool

ALEXANDRA DOCK BIOMASS POWER STATION

RES is developing a renewable energy project fuelled by wood-based biomass at Alexandra Dock, working closely with Peel Ports at the Port of Liverpool.  The biomass power station will be 150MW in size.  At 150MW the power station has the capacity to generate 1,100GWh of renewable electricity per year which is the equivalent to the average annual electricity consumption of around 250,000 average British households.
