US-American pellet producer Northeast Wood Products plans to build a pellet plant with annual capacity of 125,000 t at a site in Jasper (Tennessee, USA). Together with the two existing US pellet plants of NWP in Peebles (Ohio) and Ligonier (Indiana), the company’s third plant and further expansion investments will bring total production capacity to more than 400,000 t/year. Each of the plants in Peebles and Ligonier currently boasts production capacity of 65,000 t/year. In September and November 2014, NWP had taken over the pellet-production assets of Tennessee Hardwood Pellets and of Anderson Hardwood. Those lines, with capacities of 120,000 t and 35,000 t/year respectively, are to be dismantled, transferred to the other two sites and recommissioned.
