ACP’s biogas partner AlphaGen Renewables, which oversee the installation and operation of a 50kW microgeneration landfill gas engine, will develop the project.

The project is expected to generate power from the landfill gas resource at the site under a 20 year agreement with Norfolk County Council.

AlphaGen Renewables chairman Richard Tipping said: "We are delighted to be partnering with ACP on this project, which is set to deliver strong returns. Renewables such as biogas are playing a growing role in the UK’s energy production."

Albion Ventures Renewables head David Gudgin said: "Biogas is an increasingly popular area of renewable energy and we are looking forward to working with AlphaGen both on this project and others in the future."

Electrify demand is expected to continue to grow over the next few years in UK as is committed to the EU to generate 15% of all power from renewable energy by 2020.
