Air Products has been given a green light to build the 49MW Tees Valley Renewable Energy Facility. The company has confirmed that it has secured planning permission from Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council to build the plant, which is expected to be the UK's first large-scale facility to generate electricity from gasification of municipal waste. The company is still awaiting consent from the UK Environment Agency, but is hoping to begin work on the site next year, with commercial operations starting in 2014.
