How many people will the proposed CCGT station employ?
It is estimated that the CCGT will employ up to 50 direct staff, with further job opportunities being created indirectly through support roles such as maintenance, engineering, finance, energy trading and procurement activities. A peak of 1000 jobs will also be created during the construction and decommissioning phases. A more detailed analysis is currently being undertaken and further information will be presented at subsequent exhibitions to demonstrate the potential opportunities for the local communities.
