Am y prosiect hwn

Penderfynwyd ar y cais hwn cyn i’r gweithdrefnau presennol gael eu rhoi ar waith. O ganlyniad, nid yw’r holl gynnwys a luniwyd gan yr Arolygiaeth Gynllunio wedi’i gyfieithu i’r Gymraeg.

Enhancement of existing 95.7 Mega Watt electrical (MWe) power station and installation of two new boilers (nominally 164 Mega Watt Thermal (MWth)) and two turbines (nominally 65 Mega Watt Electrical (MWe)) each. These will be housed in a new power station building with associated new pipe work connecting the new power station to the existing power station. The electrical generation capacity of the enhanced power station will be increased to between 170MWe and 225MWe (exact capacity will be confirmed when the Scoping Request is made). Some elements of the existing power station will be decommissioned once the new power station is in operation to maintain a continuous power supply. The primary fuel for the new power station will be gases which are a by-product of the steelmaking process. The new power station will provide capacity to significantly reduce the amount of these process gases that currently have to be flared.
