Andreas site plans include anaerobic digestinon and photovoltaic technologies
Plans for an energy hub in the north of the Island could generate up to 25% of the Island's required electricity, according to the firm behind the proposals.
IPV Flexgen and landowners Andreas Airfield are assessing options to develop a site with a range of renewable energy technologies.
It's proposed the facility would include anaerobic digestion, solar panels, onshore wind technology and battery storage.
IPV Flexgen says it's carried out a series of evaluations and believes Andreas Airfield is an ideal site for energy and commercial development.
The company says anaerobic digestion, where organic waste is broken down to create biogas, and solar photovoltaics will be the cornerstone of the project, with claims these will provide greater energy security and economic growth.
Those behind the proposals now want to hear from the local community, and are holding a public meeting on the topic at Andreas Community Hall on Wednesday (29 November) at 7.30pm.
