In the UK, px Group has announced it has secured an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) contract for the Tees Renewable Energy Plant (Tees REP).
The contract marks px Group’s further expansion into the biomass power generation industry, the firm said.
Located in Tees Valley, one of the world’s largest purpose-built pellet biomass power plants has the capacity to generate 299 MW of energy, which is enough to power 600,000 homes.
The award of the O&M partnership follows a preceding collaboration with px Engineering, which provided consultancy and expertise during the plant commissioning phase, the firm added.
“It is a landmark moment for px Group to take on the operations and maintenance of the largest new-build biomass plant in the world and a transformative moment for the entire regional energy sector,” said Dave Thompson, Chief Operating Officer at px Group. “We are looking forward to strengthening our expertise in this area and bringing our partner the highest standards of safety, efficiency, and reliability.”
