Power Station near Sutton
Image: © Michael Trolove Taken: 6 Apr 2009
Built to burn straw from the Arable farms of East and West Anglia and also East Midland farms. Highly automated, lorries have to deliver loads of straw correctly loaded so the automatic systems can unload and deliver the bales to a holding store before they are burnt. When built it was the largest of its type. Details of this and other novel fueled power stations can be found here http://www.eprl.co.uk/
