Tamar Energy have now submitted a Planning Application to the County Council to build an Anaerobic Digestion Plant on the Gedling Colliery site. The site they have chosen is on "brownfield" disused land that was previously part of the colliery.

The site which Tamar want to build on, is nearly half a kilometre from Arnold Lane and nearly two thirds of a kilometre from Lambley Lane.
