Clean-tech company Clean Planet Energy has chosen Sleaford Moor Enterprise Park as the location for its second-only ecoPlant in the UK.
Pending planning approval, the proposed facility would bring 50–70 new green jobs to the area, support around 100 jobs during construction and process up to 25,000 tonnes of hard-to-recycle plastic annually, supplied from waste processing companies by contract.
Sleaford Moor Enterprise Park was selected by Clean Planet Energy for reasons including the site’s access to industrial infrastructure and its aim to lead on local sustainability and economic growth goals, in line with the Council’s priorities.
North Kesteven District Council will continue working closely with the company to support the next stages of development. See the full story.
