Biomass-burning unit at facility will be fitted with pioneering technology that aims to cut emissionsDrax Group will lead a ?400,000 trial to capture and store carbon at its north Yorkshire power station in an attempt to kickstart a technology that has repeatedly failed to get off the ground in the UK.The company was part of earlier efforts to build a ?1bn prototype carbon capture coal plant, but pulled out in 2015 after it missed out on renewable energy subsidies.

Experts believe the project is a world first. Continue reading...
