An integrated EfW facility with other treatment technologies, with the EfW based upon Gasification technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. The EfW element of the facility at Glasgow has permitted operational capacity of 150,000 tonnes per annum, operated and owned by Viridor. Delivery of waste is by road to a regeneration site at Polmadie in the south of the city [1].

Summary
An integrated EfW facility with other treatment technologies, with the EfW based upon Gasification technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. The EfW element of the facility at Glasgow has permitted operational capacity of 150,000 tonnes per annum, operated and owned by Viridor. Delivery of waste is by road to a regeneration site at Polmadie in the south of the city [2].
History
The Glasgow facility was built as an integrated solution primarily to service a 25 year PPP (Design Build Finance Operate ("DBFO" model) [3] 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.
Plant
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 [4],. Due to the accumulated losses by Interserve on this project and the Sinfin Lane project led to Interserve exciting the EfW market in early 2017[5]
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.
Waste Tonnage, By Origin
The table shows a list of the Waste for the Permit PPC/A/1110002, that has arrived into sites as reported to the Regulator and then publicised in their reported statistics. The Data was last updated on October 2023. The total reported tonnage arriving at the site was: 77,489.43t.
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.
