I have noticed for some time here in Seaforth within the dock system some very high silo type buildings with what looks like covered conveyor belts high in the air going from one building to another.I asked the volunteer driver of the minibus in the mission what these buildings are,he was telling me that it is a new Biomass facility.It will handle three million tonnes of wood pellets from North America each year for the power station at Selby,Yorks.Four trains a day will transport the pellets to the Drax power station.
