Wood-fuelled energy plant planned
A plan to create a £24m wood-fuelled energy plant is closer to being built after securing more than £5m of government funding.
If it goes ahead, the combined heat and power plant will be capable of heating 20,000 homes a year.
The biomass scheme will use wood fibre to produce steam to make electricity.
Heat generated during this process will be used to manufacture 100,000 tonnes of wood pellets a year, offering an alternative to fossil fuels, such as oil.
The new plant will create around 30 local jobs.
