Andritz delivered the biomass receiving and handling system as part of the Workington project which included a chipping line for logs and a crushing line for wood waste. The A-frame building in the background stores 20,000 cubic metres of biomass. The Workington Mill yearly uses around 800,000 tonnes of wood, mostly from Scotland and northern England

board approved the investment and within weeks the contract for PB195 was in place with Andritz. The design called for a fuel input of 147.5 MW.
