28 April 2006 - Chicken manure is to be used to fire a new biomass power plant in the Netherlands after a €100m ($125m) contract was awarded for the plant's construction.

Austrian Energy & Environment (AE&E) is to build the 36 MW plant for BMC Moerdijk in a consortium with Siemens. The Austrian systems supplier will also assume a ten per cent share of the project.

More than 40 000 tonnes of chicken manure each year will be used to generate electricity. The Moerdijk plant should be completed in 2008, after which AE&E will undertake the complete running and servicing of the plant under an Operation & Maintenance agreement.

Under the terms of the contract, which has a value of around €50m to AE&E, the company will engineer, supply, assemble and commission the plant with all the required auxiliary systems.
