Electric idea for village
Wednesday 14th January 2009, 11:55AM GMT.
A major electricity plant powered by methane gas from a former landfill site could be on the cards in a Shropshire village.
Waste management firm Sita UK has tabled a bid to install and use the plant at Heathgates Landfill Site, Prees, near Whitchurch.
The proposal to Shropshire County Council would see landfill gas piped away to generate electricity.
