Why Corpach
|
Corpach Harbour already has a long history of handling timber products, importing saw logs for local wood processing industries, and exporting pulpwood to paper mills in the south and also Scandinavia. It has good access infrastructure for use during construction and for the delivery of fuel once the plant is in operation. The site’s location affords good access to the forestry resources of the region.
The portside location is an important feature of the site, not only for its potential for fuel deliveries, but also to increase plant efficiency by utilising sea water in the cooling process. This allows more energy from the wood fuel to be exported to the grid than alternative types of system cooling. |
