Welsh First Minister officially opens Wales' first commercial biomass plant
30 September 2009
The £33 million Western Wood Energy Plant, in Port Talbot, South Wales, generates enough electricity to power the equivalent of 31,000 homes a year. Developed by Cardiff-based international renewable energy company, Eco2 Ltd, in partnership with the Port Talbot located Western Log Group, the project created 200 local construction jobs during its two-year build phase. The Plant now directly employs 20 permanent staff responsible for operating the plant as well as sustaining many jobs in the local timber and engineering businesses through fuel supply and maintenance activities.
