Green energy facility that would power 20,000 homes could be built near Lincolnshire villageThe company behind it says it's good for both farmers and the environmentView Image Plans for a second anaerobic digestion plant in Glentham, West Lindsey (Image: VIDA Bioenergy Ltd)A plant that recycles crops and cattle waste into renewable energy could be built near a Lincolnshire village. ‌An anaerobic digestion plant was constructed near the West Lindsey village of Glentham in 2022, and plans have now been submitted for a second one nearby. ‌The planning application says it would convert waste products and spare crops into renewable biomethane gas, which could power approximately 20,000 homes. ‌The plans have been submitted by the London-based renewable energy developer VIDA Bioenergy Ltd. As well as gas, which would be pumped into the National Grid, the anaerobic digestion process would also create carbon dioxide for industrial uses and natural organic fertiliser.
