Power Station Plans Update

An energy developer says it will submit plans for a new power station to be built in Southampton this summer.

Helius Energy wants to build a biomass fuelled power station in the Millbrook area of the city.

Plans were due to be submitted in the first quarter of this year but that date has now been pushed back.

The company is currently putting together a document that will include the findings from a consultation.

Once the application has been submitted members of the public will be able to have their say before a final decision is made by the Secretary of State.
