Tilbury Green Power Limited

NOTICE OF APPLICATION FOR CONSENT TO CONSTRUCT A 60MW RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY GENERATING PLANT AT TILBURY DOCKS

Notice is hereby given that Tilbury Green Power Limited (TGP) (“the Company”) has applied under section 36 of the Electricity Act 1989, for consent from the Secretary of State to construct and operate a 60MW renewable electricity generating station at Tilbury Docks, Tilbury, Essex and for a direction, under section 90(2) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, that planning permission for the development be deemed to be granted.

The power station will generate renewable energy from biomass fuel and from solid recovered fuel (SRF). SRF is prepared by processing municipal and commercial waste. Materials for recycling are also produced.

A copy of the application, with a plan showing the land to which it relates, together with a copy of the Environmental Statement, explaining the Company’s proposals in more detail and presenting an analysis of the environmental implications with a non-technical summary thereof, may be inspected, during normal office hours, at the following addresses:

Thurrock Council, Civic Offices, New Road, Grays RM17 6SL;

Grays Library, Orsett Road, Grays RM17 5DX;

Grays Adult Education Centre, Richmond Road, Grays RM17 6DN; and

Site Location Office, Port of Tilbury, Tilbury RM18 7PU.

Hard copies of the Environmental Statement (price £35), CD copies of the Environmental Statement (free of charge) and copies of the Non-Technical Summary (free of charge) may be obtained, while stocks last, by writing to Tilbury Green Power, c/o 60 Grosvenor Street, London W1K 3JW or emailing consultation@tilburygreenpower.co.uk

The Environmental Statement and the Non-Technical Summary can also be inspected on-line at www.tilburygreenpower.co.uk

Any objections to the proposals, stating the name of the power station and the grounds of the objection, should be made in writing to the Secretary of State for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform, c/o Bay 2123, 1 Victoria Street, London SW1H 0ET, or by email to: walter.gusmag@berr.gov.uk not later than 31 March 2008 . Other representations are also welcome. Unless otherwise indicated, copies of any objections, and other representations received, will be regarded as public documents.

During the consideration of the proposal the Secretary of State may formally request further information from the developer to supplement the Environmental Statement, and materially relevant additional information may also be generated. If that happens further public notices will give advice on how representations may be made to the Secretary of State on this material.

Following receipt of all views and representations the Secretary of State will either grant or refuse consent for the proposal (with or without conditions). This may involve holding a public inquiry first, depending on whether there is a statutory objection from the relevant planning authority, or the Secretary of State decides to exercise his discretion to call a public inquiry in the light of objection by other persons.
