Application Submitted Cirrus Array (Shell Flats) 270 MW Offshore wind – Round 3

Rounds 3 initial zones Round 3 revised zones Onshore Wind – Scout Moor Wind Farm

Twenty-six 2.5 MW turbines installed 2008 • Generating 65 MW, supplies 40,000 homes • 160,000 /year of CO2 saved

• 8 more needed by 2020 • 5 to 7 years from site identification to operation Onshore Wind – Mersey Wind Farms

Six 600 kW turbines installed in 1999 • Generating 3.6 MW, supplies 2,000 homes • 8,000 tonnes/year of CO2 saved

Four 2.5 MW turbines due for completion Q1 2009 • 61 more needed by 2020 • Generating 10 MW, supplies 5,500 homes • 4 to 6 years from site • 22,000 tonnes/year of CO2 saved identification to operation Hydro – Barton Lock, Ship Canal

Hydro electric station within canal lock system installed in 1994 • 660 kW, supplies 600 homes • 914 tonnes/year of CO2 saved • Operated by Novera Energy • 14 more needed by 2020 • 5 to 12 years from site identification to operation Tidal – Power from the Mersey

Tidal Lagoon in Zone 1, 350MW : low impact on shipping Tidal Barrage in Zone 2, 700MW : impact on shipping but potential for extension to the Manchester Ship Canal Water Wheels in Zone 3, 200MW : minimal impact on shipping Tidal Barrage in Zone 3, 500MW : low impact on shipping Tidal Gate in Zone 3, 380MW : minimal impact on shipping • 1 needed by 2020 to replace landfill gas • 10+ years from site identification to operation Biomass – Wood and Energy From Waste

Biomass • 100 MW plants fed by imported fuels

Energy from Waste • Ince Resource Recovery Park • 95 MW Energy from Waste plant proposed • Awaiting determination by Secretary of State

• 4 needed by 2020 (plus 1 if replacing co-firing at Fiddlers Ferry) • 5 to 8 years from site identification to operation Outlook for 2020

• ENERGY EFFICIENCY

• More wind energy – onshore and offshore

• More commercial renewable energy technologies – tidal, wave, solar, hydro

• Fossil Fuels with Carbon Capture and Storage

• Nuclear, hydrogen, biofuels …

• More tough decision for all of us – energy policy / planning policy – environmental – habitats and visual impact – investments Peel Energy – contact details
