Historic Textile Mill Biomass Project
Pingle Mill near Huddersfield is one of West Yorkshire’s oldest textile mills and we worked with the company to design and install a 200kW biomass project. Our services were provided in a turn-key fashion inclusive of pre-feasibility, front-end engineering design, installation and commissioning.
Our full services from feasibility to commissioning included:
- Creating a technically feasible and commercially attractive financial model to suit the client’s requirements.
- Providing a full system design, along with planning permission and RHI applications.
- Design and installation of a new plant room and fuel store in keeping with the historic mill premises.
- Full commissioning of system, and advice of fuel sourcing.
The new biomass system is expected to generate 528,380kWh a year, cutting overheads and allowing for further investment in innovation and product development.
A spokesman for R Gledhill said “Increased capacity in recent years had broadened the company’s range of manufactured products, opening new markets with major UK retailers. Switching to biomass will ensure we remain competitive and will help us to adhere to the environmental standards that our customers demand from their supply chain.”
