Has West Coast waste-to-energy plan pipped Blenheim pyrolysis plant to the post?
A waste-to-energy plant planned for the West Coast could mean there is no point opening a pyrolysis plant in Blenheim, hopeful neighbours say.
They have rallied against the Blenheim plant plan, intended to recycle hundreds of tonnes of waste wood into charcoal, over fears emissions from chemically treated wood would affect their health.
They say a Blenheim plant isn't needed if Renew Energy Ltd goes ahead with plans to build a waste-to-energy plant in Westport, which would turn plastics and other non-recyclable materials into energy, creating enough to power 30,000 households.
