Peel Energy is at the forefront of delivering low carbon energy for the UK and believes that a mix of low carbon technologies is the only way to meet the UK’s growing energy needs. Peel Energy are investing in:

Biomass

A number of sites have been identified for the development of a series of biomass power stations at Peel Group facilities, with a potential output of up to 100MW each.

Energy from Waste

Energy from Waste (EfW) projects include the Ince Resource Recovery Park in Cheshire which will deliver 95MW of electricity through the combustion of Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF).

Wind Power

Peel Energy’s onshore wind portfolio is in excess of 450MW and its projects include: England’s largest onshore scheme, Scout Moor in Lancashire which includes 26 2.5MW turbines; Royal Seaforth Dock Wind Farm in Liverpool; Port of Liverpool Wind Farm; and a planning application for the Port of Sheerness Wind Farm.

Multi-Fuel Generation with Carbon Capture and Storage

Peel Energy have partnered with DONG Energy to develop solutions that will make fossil-fuelled generation a genuine low-carbon route for the UK and to deliver carbon capture and storage (CCS) on a commercial scale.

Tidal Power

Peel Energy is working with the Northwest Regional Development Agency and Mersey Basin Campaign, to explore the potential of generating electricity from tidal power in the Mersey Estuary.
