Enfield Farm Biomass Power Plant | United Kingdom

Enfield Farm is a biomass power plant located in the United Kingdom, with coordinates 50.7077, -3.4406. It has a capacity of 2 MW, placing it in the small-scale category for power generation. The plant is currently operational and owned by Greener For Life Energy. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the UK, which implements the EU Industrial Emissions Directive 2010/75/EU and Best Available Techniques (BAT) conclusions for biomass combustion. As a biomass plant, it utilizes organic materials for fuel, which can help reduce carbon emissions compared to fossil fuels, though emissions of particulate matter and other pollutants are regulated. Enfield Farm plays a role in the UK's renewable energy mix, supporting local grid stability and contributing to national targets for clean energy. Its small capacity suggests it may serve a local community or industrial facility, providing a sustainable power source with lower environmental impact than conventional thermal plants.

As a biomass power plant, Enfield Farm uses organic fuel, which can be carbon-neutral if sourced sustainably. Its small 2 MW capacity limits its overall emissions footprint. The plant's location in the UK means it must comply with strict emission limits under the Industrial Emissions Directive, including controls on NOx, SOx, and particulate matter. Proximity to populated areas is a consideration for local air quality, but the small scale reduces potential impact.
