Drax agrees to meet with Yorkshire and Humber Climate Commission following BBC investigation

Bosses at Selby-based Drax power station will meet with representatives of the Yorkshire and Humber Climate Commission to discuss allegations revealed in a BBC Panorama investigation earlier this week.

The BBC Panorama investigation challenged Drax’s claim that it only uses sawdust and waste wood for the wood pellets which it burns to produce energy.

The investigation reported that Drax had been felling trees from environmentally-important forests in Canada in order to produce these pellets.
