The Miners Road Gas Generation scheme is a 23MW flexible generation plant. The site is comprised of 10no. 2MW gas generators. These generators are fed by natural gas and are directly connected to alternators that produce electricity. This electricity is then exported form the site to the local Scottish Power electricity network. The gas fired generator technology, gas peaking plants, is regarded as the enabling power generation technology to allow the transition from coal and diesel power to wind and solar. The plants are used in times of peak demand and are called on to bridge any shortfalls in supply. This project will also include 3MW (6MWh) of Battery Storage Technology which will also discharge to the local network as required in parallel with the Gas Engines. The Miners Road site will also provide 10 Electric Vehicle Charging points to support and serve the local community.

Burtonhead Road Power is a 20MW gas fired electricity generation plant. The site is comprised of 10no. 2MW Cummins gas generators. These generators are fed by natural gas and are directly connected to alternators that produce electricity. This electricity is then exported from the site to the local Scottish Power Ravenshead substation. The gas fired generator technology, gas peaking plants, is regarded as the enabling power generation technology to allow the transition from coal and diesel power to wind and solar. The plants are used in times of peak demand and are called on to bridge any shortfalls in supply, such as power outages when the wind is not blowing, or the sun is not shining.
