An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. Devonport has a permitted operational capacity of 265,000 tonnes per annum, and is owned and operated by MVV Environment. Delivery of waste is primarily by road and the facility processes primarily residual Household Waste and some Commercial Waste. It is located in North Yard, next to Her Majesty's Naval Base Devonport.

Summary
An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. Devonport has a permitted operational capacity of 265,000 tonnes per annum, and is owned and operated by MVV Environment. Delivery of waste is primarily by road and the facility processes primarily residual Household Waste and some Commercial Waste. It is located in North Yard, next to Her Majesty's Naval Base Devonport.
History
The Devonport facility was built primarily to service a 25 year PFI contract signed in March 2011 with South West Devon Waste Partnership (or SWDWP) which comprises Torbay Council, Plymouth City Council, and Devon County Council with anticipated input of around 163,000 tonnes per annum from these authorities. The site began accepting waste in September 2015, and under a combined heat and power supply agreement with the adjacent naval base, started supplying heat and reached full operations in January 2016. [1]
Plant
Built by MVV Umwelts's in-house contracting company with civil engineering support contract from Keir the construction started in mid 2012 and was delivered at a reported lifetime cost of GBP £389m[2] and reported[3] capital cost of GBP £188m. The plant comprises standard combustion technology, air cooled grate, generating super-heated steam [4]. It is configured to run on residual Household Waste and Commercial Waste to deliver 24MWe of power. MVV Environmental openly publish their annual plant performance report [5]
Local Authority Data
The table below lists those local authorities who have recorded their tonnage on WasteDataFlow as sending their Waste to this site (either directly or via a transfer station) for the most recent financial year, data was updated on 2023-04-26. The tonnage received cannot be directly compared with the stated historical tonnage received and recorded in the EA statistics as these are recorded on a calendar year basis (i.e. January 2018 to December 2018). The total Local Authority waste received by the plant in the period was: 189,756.09t
A 'zero return' or a below expected return, when compared to the EA Data below indicates that either:
- no local authority tonnage was recorded/no tonnage was sent to the site in the period (but has been listed as it may have previously received tonnage from a local authority) or
- a result of the plant being recently commissioned and actually having received no tonnage or
- a lower than expected tonnage maybe a result of a local authority splitting their tonnage over multiple sites, having less tonnage to send than might be anticipated or
- it may be a new plant being in 'ramp up' towards full capacity after construction or
- may be a result of plant shut down and subsequent re-start in a year or
- the local authority may not have correctly entered the site's details on WasteDataFlow

Waste Tonnage, By Origin
The table shows a list of the Waste for the Permit WP3833FT, that has arrived into sites as reported to the Regulator and then publicised in their reported statistics. The Data used is from the most recent returns. The total reported tonnage arriving at the site was: Expression error: Unexpected < operator.t.
Where this tonnage exceeds that reported in year of the corresponding annual report, this may be due to the following reasons:
- Tonnage may have been received but not incinerated, i.e. the material is held pending incineration (the operator return to the EA reports as received whereas the annual report focuses on when the waste is incinerated.)
- Material may have been received into the site but treated in some other way than incineration.
- Material may have been received on the but transferred out of site for disposal/treatment at another site rather than incineration on the site.
