500 new construction jobs will be created after power firm SSE has taken a final decision to proceed with the Ferrybridge Multifuel 2 project in West Yorkshire, construction is expected to begin later this year.
News outlets have today suggested that the project will be built next to the recently completed FM1 project on land at Ferrybridge ‘C’ Power Station in Knottingley.
News website ConstructionEnquirer has reported that an EPC contract has now been signed with Swiss engineering contractor Hitachi Zosen Inova, which built the neighbouring FM1 plant.
More than 500 construction jobs will be created during the three-year FM2 build.
Charlie Cryans, Head of Construction for SSE said: “We will be holding a meet the buyer event in the coming weeks which will provide local businesses and suppliers with the opportunity to meet the main contractor for the project, and pitch their products and services.”
Franz-Josef Mengede, CEO of HZI said: “Our experience during the construction of the now operational FM1 plant will be invaluable in helping us to deliver this second plant and meet the high standards required by SSE.”
Details of the upcoming meet the buyer event will be advertised in due course.
Like the first multifuel plant, FM2 will have a generating capacity of 90MW and will produce enough energy to power around 160,000 homes.
