Peel Energy has been granted planning consent for its proposed biomass energy plant at Ince Park in Cheshire.
The plant will be capable of generating the equivalent amount of electricity used by 37,000 homes and will supply renewable heat and steam to local industry.
Peel plans to begin construction in 2012, for completion in 2014.
Jon Burley of Peel Energy said: “We look forward to taking the project on to the next stage, ultimately delivering renewable energy and jobs for the region. We are also keen to continue our dialogue with community groups via the Ince Park Community Forum as we have done throughout the application process.”
