flag A £30M digester plan in Worcestershire faces pushback over traffic, safety, and transparency concerns.

flag A proposed £30 million anaerobic digestion plant in Hindlip, near Worcester, has faced strong opposition after its public consultation ended. flag The project, by Stenergy (Worcester) Limited, aims to process 48,500 tonnes of food waste annually into biomethane, supporting a 2026 UK government mandate to reduce landfill use. flag Residents, parish councils, emergency services, and local officials have raised concerns over odors, increased traffic on narrow roads, safety risks, and insufficient evidence on road access. flag Worcestershire County Council’s highways authority recommended deferral, citing unresolved safety issues. flag Councillor Seb James questioned the developer’s transparency and financial stability, while also noting potential risks to forensic operations at the site. flag The plan includes demolishing existing buildings and constructing new facilities, but no decision has been made.
