Chief executive Will Gardiner said: "We believe there is a compelling logic in our move to add further flexible sources of power to our offering."
Drax runs the UK's biggest power plant near Selby in North Yorkshire and is moving away from coal ahead of a government deadline for an emissions limit on coal plants from 2025.
It has already converted four of its six generating units to burn wood pellets.

Thousands of students at the University of York have had their water supply restored after lectures had to be cancelled when the supply dried up causing major disruption.
Image source, @SamWetherelBuildings across large parts of Campus West were left completely without water yesterday due to the problem.
Image source, @SamWetherelPortable toilets and 6,000 bottles of water had to be brought onto the campus for students, with one wit referring to the problem as "poopmageddon".
The issue was caused by a burst pipe which cut off water to large parts of the campus, meaning there was no water to cook, shower or use the toilet.

Happily for all concerned, the leaking pipe has now been fixed and water supplies resumed.
