Willow harvested for biomass
In addition to growing willow for fence manufacture we also harvest a proportion of it as woodchip. We have recently finished harvesting and to see how we do this you can view the video below. The harvesting is undertaken every three years, the woodchip produced, referred to as biomass, will be used to co-fire with coal to produce electricity at Drax power station in Yorkshire. This is helping the UK reduce its CO2 emissions.
Biomass for Electricity
The largest Coal fired power station in the UK located at Drax in Yorkshire have recently announced a large project for the development of Electricity generation from Willow Biomass. Details of the planned project can be found here
