welcome
Welcome to the web site of GB-BIO, a locally-owned and run company, set up to create and manage the Tansterne Straw-burning CHP Plant in Holderness, East Yorkshire, UK.
The Plant has been in development for a number of years (see About Us) and has successfully obtained planning permission, draft environmental permit, electrical grid connection and feedstock supply. GB-BIO is taking the plant to the next stage, with invitations to tender for the plant build now being reviewed. The contract is expected to awarded at the beginning of 2012. The Plant is proposed to be operational in 2014.
