The [[Biomass]] capacity of UK [[EfW]] plants is generally increasing, and from 2016 to 2017 the amount of [[Biomass]] being processed by UK facilities increased by 6.9%<ref name='bio1' />. Analysis undertaken as part of compiling the operational capacity for the year 2018 for WikiWaste showed that 1,923,783 tonnes of [[Wood Waste]] went to the listed plants (with some plants not reporting tonnage), and just under 20,000 tonnes went to other facilities (primarily [[Tunstead]] [[Cement Kiln]]). However, several plants were operating at under design capacity, and if the capacity was considered (excluding co-firing plants and including only dedicated capacity for [[Wood Waste]] at design/plated capacity) then the overall capacity is 3,043,218 tonnes. This represents a significant proportion of the total [[Wood Waste]] market and it is questionable if all the operational sites that follow will be ~~able to be sustained~~ with the ~~available~~ [[Wood Waste]] in the market.
