Henderson County eyes waste to energy plant with rail talks
Renewable Developers plans a 50 000 square foot waste to energy facility on a 2 acre portion of a 225 acre site in Transylvania County. The project could reduce local waste by processing 100 tons daily using woodchips and refuse while maintaining limited emissions. A public presentation is set for April 11 at the county library as officials weigh permitting and rail reopenings with Norfolk Southern.
