Scheme Summary
Kier has been awarded a £29m early works package on United Utilities' £170m Blackburn biogas plant — part of UU's bioresources renewable energy programme converting sewage sludge into biogas. Early works contracts of this type are typically the first tranche of a larger AMP8 scheme, so worth watching for follow-on main-works procurement as the Blackburn programme progresses.
