The Glasgow facility was built as an integrated solution primarily to service a 25 year [[PPP]] contract with [[Glasgow City Council]] signed in July 2012 to process around 350,000 tonnes per annum. The facility diverts around 200,000 tonnes per annum from [[Landfill]] via a combination of [[Mechanical Biological Treatment]] including [[Anaerobic Digestion]], with the [[RDF]] output sent to the [[ATT]]/[[Gasification]] facility with a capacity listed of 150,000 tonnes per annum and power output of 15MWe. | The Glasgow facility was built as an integrated solution primarily to service a 25 year [[PPP]] ([[Design Build Finance Operate]] ("[[DBFO]]" model) <ref>https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=31413&p=0</ref> contract with [[Glasgow City Council]] signed in July 2012 to process around 350,000 tonnes per annum.

Originally built by [[Interserve]] under an [[EPC]] contract which started in 2013 (with a 2016 completion date) with the [[Gasification]] technology delivered by [[Energos]], the contract was terminated due to 'repeated delays', and was completed by [[Doosan Babcock]] in late summer 2019. Originally estimated to cost £154m by Viridor, they reported an over run of £95m <ref>[https://www.mrw.co.uk/latest/viridor-to-lose-95m-on-its-glasgow-efw-project/10029534.article MRW Article]</ref>,.

==Local Authority | ==Local Authority Data== | ||
The [[Residual EfW]] pages for sites located in England and Wales capture the data reported by Local Authorities, through [[WasteDataFlow]], received at those sites. In Scotland this data is not reported, meaning that the destination in [[WasteDataFlow]] is not defined and the origin in the regulator returns for a facility receiving the tonnage is also not reported (resulting in a 'NA' in the table in the section below). As a result it is not possible to report for Scottish sites in the same way as other sites in WikiWaste. | |||
