A Welsh industrial park is set to be without any electricity for a number of weeks until a new supply is put in place after the Welsh Government failed in a High Court bid to resolve the problem.
Some businesses based at Baglan Enery Park in Neath Port Talbot are now in the dark about how they will power their operations for almost two months after it was revealed that a new connection would not be in place until the end of May - several weeks after the existing power supply could be cut off on April 4.
Baglan Operations Limited and the Baglan group of companies entered compulsory liquidation on March 24, 2021, and an official receiver was appointed to ensure a safe ‘wind-down’ of operations. This included the ongoing provision of the sole electricity supply to Baglan Energy Park via a private wire network linked to the now-closed Baglan energy plant.
