Key figures – the opportunity:
- The potential for developing up to 50 hectares of heated greenhouse has been identified. These would be established in 10-hectare phases over the coming decade
- Attractive NPV IRR and payback time calculated for both power station and growers
- Stable and discounted heat and carbon dioxide costs have been calculated for growers
- An initial phase of 10 hectares will use an estimated 23 GWh/year of waste heat and could use 10,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year
- The potential to create 60-90 jobs has been identified according to the crops produced
- Identification of grant funding for up to 40% of capital costs
- Identification of and introduction to two groups of interested investors and growers looking to progress the project
