A steam turbine caught fire at an industrial estate in Dundee in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Firefighters received an alert shortly after 1.30am of a turbine on fire in Forties Road at Baldovie Industrial Estate.
Two crews were despatched from Kingsway station to tackle the blaze, which broke out at waste management firm MVV Environment Baldovie Limited.
They tackled the blaze for almost five hours.
The fire was caused by an oil leak in one of the steam turbines inside the plant.
Wind turbines situated at the rear of the site were unaffected.
MVV managing director Paul Carey thanked firefighters for their response.
He said: “We had a small fire due a minor oil leak on our steam turbine.
“Our team on-site dealt with the fire and were supported by the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service, for which we thank them.”
