Summary
A Biomass Waste EFW facility utilising a feedstock of up to 120,000 tpa of Wood Waste to generate 17.5 MWe to be exported to the national grid. The facility is located in the town of Chilton in Durham.
The facility has been developed, built and continues to be operated by Dalkia, a sister company to Veolia Environmental Services. Construction started in early 2010 and it became operational in 2011[2].
Plant
The facility cost £40 million to develop[2].
Tonnage Input/Fuel
The tonnage received by the plant in the most recent Annual Sustainability Report for 2018-19[3] was reported by Ofgem as follows:
| Biomass | Tonnage (2018-19) |
|---|---|
| Wood Waste | 115,099 |
| Other | 0 |
| Total | 115,099 |
The Wood Waste is received from a variety of sources including old pallets, manufacturing off-cuts, wood from the construction and demolition industry and material from Waste Disposal Authority's civic amenity sites[2]. The Wood Waste 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) and was 117,162 tonnes.
