==Overview==
==Summary==
The Skelton Grange EfW facility will be located at a site in south Leeds and is being developed by the energy from waste [[Enfinium]] which was created by the coming together of [[Wheelabrator]] UK and Multifuel Energy<ref name="Lets" />. Once constructed and fully operational it will divert up to 410,000 tonnes of non-recyclable [[Residual Waste|residual waste]] from [[Landfill|landfill]] or export and be used to generate 47MW (gross)/41MW (net) of partially renewable, baseload energy each year to power around 102,000 homes<ref name="bea">[https://waste-management-world.com/a/beauparc-signs-10yr-deal-to-supply-skelton-grange-waste-to-energy-facility/ Waste Management Word.com]</ref>. Full commissioning of the plant is planned for 2025<ref name="Cons">[https://www.constructionenquirer.com/2021/07/09/hzi-to-build-250m-skelton-grange-efw-incinerator/ Construction Enquirer.com]</ref>.
[[Skelton Grange EfW Plant|Skelton Grange]] is described as a [[CHP|combined heat and power]] facility which, when constructed and fully operational, will process 410,000 tonnes of residual [[Waste|waste]] (with a permit maximum of 435,000 tonnes per annum) to generate 49 MW (gross) of electricity. It reached financial close at the beginning of July 2021<ref name="Lets" />. Located at a site in south Leeds, it is being developed by [[Enfinium]] which was created by the coming together of [[Wheelabrator]] UK and [[Multifuel Energy]].


The combined heat and power-enabled facility will process business and residential waste from across Yorkshire and the wider region and export power to the National Grid<ref name="bea" />.
==Technology==
The plant comprises two lines of a standard moving grate technology processing around 22.2 tonnes per hour of waste per line and producing super-heated steam and 41.6MWe gross, with a net export of 38MWe<ref>Permit Decision Document</ref>. The technology will be [[Hitachi Zosen Inova|HZI's]] own [[EfW]] technology<ref name="Cons" />.


In January [[Enfinium]] [[Skelton Grange EfW Plant]] signed two long terms waste supply contracts for over 50% of the facility's annual capacity with Suez UK and [[Beauparc]], the latter with [[Residual Waste|residual waste]] from its AWM site which is situated a mile from the proposed location of the plant<ref name="bea"/>. [[Beauparc]] and [[Enfinium]] have previous history, working together on both the [[Ferrybridge Multifuel 1 (FM1)|FM1]] and [[Ferrybridge Multifuel 2 (FM2)|FM2]] developments with SSE plc at [[Ferrybridge Multifuel 1 (FM1)|Ferrybridge]]<ref name="bea" /> at Knottingley, West Yorkshire. Further long term contracts were signed with [[Biffa]] and [[B&M Waste]] in June 2021<ref name ="Lets" />.
==Construction==
[[Hitachi Zosen Inova]] has been named as the [[Engineering, Procurement and Construction Contract]] ([[EPC]]) contractor for the delivery of the facility<ref name="Lets" />.This project will be [[Hitachi Zosen Inova|HZI's]] 14th project within the UK. Full commissioning of the plant is planned for 2025<ref name="Cons">[https://www.hz-inova.com/project-success-in-england-leeds-treats-non-recyclable-waste-with-technology-from-hitachi-zosen-inova/ HTZ Website]</ref>.


==Plant==
==Waste Input==
[[Hitachi Zosen Inova]] has been named as the [[Engineering, Procurement and Construction Contract]] [[(EPC)]] contractor for the delivery of the facility<ref name="Lets" />. the plant will have two incineration lines whcih will be equipped with [[Hitachi Zosen Inova|HZI's]] own EfW technology<ref name="Cons" />.
The plant is intended to run on residual [[Household Waste]] and [[Commercial Waste]] and potentially dried [[Sewage Sludge]]. In February 2021 [[Enfinium]] signed a 10 year waste supply contract for 250,000 tonnes per annum with  [[Associated Waste Management]] (part of the [[Beauparc]] business), which has a site a mile form the Skelton Grange site , for supply to this site and others in the Enfinium EfW portfoilio<ref name="bea">[https://waste-management-world.com/a/beauparc-signs-10yr-deal-to-supply-skelton-grange-waste-to-energy-facility/ Waste Management Word.com]</ref>.
