Energy company Enviva, which specializes in producing wood pellets that can be burned to generate electricity, broke ground on a massive new pellet mill in Epes, Ala., in Sumter County. It is expected to create 100 direct jobs and support 250 indirectly.
Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey takes a shovel at the groundbreaking ceremony for an Enviva wood pellet plant on Wednesday June 28, 2023 in Epes, Ala. The biomass production plant is expected to support 350 high-wage jobs in West Alabama. The largest wood pellet producer in the world broke ground this week on what will be its largest facility yet, located in rural west Alabama.
“Enviva’s significant commitment at the Port of Epes will undoubtedly breathe life into a community and region eager for new, long-term opportunities. It truly is an exciting day for West Alabama, and I sincerely appreciate Enviva’s decision to plant roots here in our great state.” Many countries in Europe and Asia consider biomass a carbon-neutral energy source if the trees are replanted after being harvested, because the freshly planted trees will eventually recapture carbon, removing it from the atmosphere.2018 study in scientific journal Environmental Research Letters
