==History==

The Ferrybridge FM2 facility was built to service primarily residual [[Household Waste]], [[Commercial Waste]], [[RDF]], [[SRF]] and [[Wood Waste]] giving it flexibility in the market and responding to the success and demand for the FM1 plant. The core tonnage for the plant has come from a range of suppliers, including [[RDF]] from [[~~AWM~~]]'s [[Treatment]] facility in Leeds (which receives tonnage from [[Bradford Metropolitan District Council | Bradford]] amongst others) but the plant also includes a large proportion of tonnage from other waste management companies processing [[Residual Waste]] to form an [[RDF]] for the plant, rather than relying on a core [[PPP]] or [[PFI]] contract for supply. It is located on the old Ferrybridge 'C' coal fire power station near Knottingley and has [[Ferrybridge Multifuel 1 (FM1)]] located adjacent to it, on the same [[SSE]] site. The combined FM1 and FM2 are capable of processing 1,350,000 tonnes per annum, making it the biggest [[Residual Waste EFW]] site in the UK.
