The following list summarizes all [[EfW]] sites that were in the planning process as at January 2020, with summary 'plated capacity' shown in the table which totals '''22,568,400 tonnes'''. In two cases planned capacity replaces existing sites (Edmonton and Lakeside totalling 1,125,000 tonnes) and no comment or note is made on those plants whose planning consent may have expired due to not being implemented within consented time limits, or the likelihood of them moving from this stage into construction, noting that the 'plated capacity' far exceeds the reported [[Residual Waste]] available to support them in the UK.
