THE installation of a £28 million power generation system is full steam ahead at Anglian Water’s Pyewipe Sewage Treatment Works.

It is part of a £200 million scheme across the Anglian region to improve several treatment works.

Two huge engines delivered to Pyewipe today will be plugged in to turn methane gas into electricity.

That power will be used to generate heat which is the main part of the sewage plant’s function of advanced digestion.
