Not too sure as the burn off is a safety measure that only happens at time of issues with the plant. I agree that it is a shame that the burn off cannot be used in some kind of CHP scheme. A vast amount of water is also used in a cooling process, heat which could probably be captured and used for a CHP scheme. It would need massive changes to the plant machinery to have the waste heat and burn off being utilised, which is probably why it isn't being done. Fabulous place to see, which I'd heartedly recommend if you've not already had a visit. Thanks for the comment.

Seems a bit of a waste. Are there any other potential uses for the burn off? Seems a bit of a waste.
