Summary
The Javelin Park EfW is located in Gloucestershire next to the M5 motorway to the south of Gloucester. It utilises combustion technology to convert 190,000 tonnes per year of municipal residual waste, supplied by Gloucestershire County Council, into electricity. This facility diverts over 90% of the county’s residual waste from landfill, producing 14.5 MW electricity to be exported to the grid. Urbaser Ltd. and Balfour Beatty are partners in a joint venture as Urbaser Balfour Beatty that developed, constructed and continues to operate this EfW that has been operational since autumn 2019[1].
History
Urbaser Balfour Beatty was selected by Gloucestershire County Council as the preferred bidder for the 25 year contract to design, build and operate Javelin Park EfW in December 2011. Planning permission for the facility was granted in January 2015, allowing construction of the facility to commence in September 2016 that was predicted to take up to 35 months. In June 2019 the facility began to accept waste during its commissioning stage, with the construction and commissioning of Javelin Park being completed and full operations beginning in January 2020[2].
Plant
The plant employs inclined moving grate combustion technology. 2.9 MW of the gross generated electricity of 17.4 MW produced by the facility provides electricity needed to sustain its operation, with the remainder 14.5 MW exported to the grid.
The facility runs continuously 24/7 with a planned shutdown for around two weeks each year for maintenance.
The contract between Gloucestershire County Council and Urbaser Balfour Beatty for the development and operation of this facility has a figure in the region of £500 million.
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: 131,965.82t
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
| Authority | Tonnage |
|---|---|
| Bristol City Council | 925.250 |
| Cheltenham Borough Council | 528.821 |
| Gloucestershire County Council | 130276.480 |
| South Gloucestershire Council | 235.270 |
Waste Tonnage, By Origin
The table shows a list of the Waste for the Permit CP3535CK, that has arrived into sites as reported to the Regulator and then publicised in their reported statistics. The Data was last updated on October 2024. The total reported tonnage arriving at the site was: 185,813.28t.
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.
