Why choose Marchwood as a site for a CCGT power plant?
The “brownfield” site at Marchwood is highly suitable as a location for a new power station as it has already been used for power generation. It is designated for power station use on the local development plan and has excellent access to energy infrastructure. Additionally, there is a shortage of power generation capability on the south coast of England and the building of a new power station will bring electricity to where it is needed.
