Summary
An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. SELCHP ERF, standing for South East London Combined Heat and Power Energy Recover Facility, is located on Landmann Way, off Surrey Canal Road, Lewisham, London. The facility has a permitted operational capacity of 420,000 tonnes per annum of waste, and produces both heat and power, exporting up to 35 MW electricity to the national grid after the plants own power needs are supplied for, and supplying the district heating network with hot water.
The plant is owned and operated by Veolia. The waste feedstock utilised at the plant is primarily residual waste arising from households and businesses in or close to London[1].
History
South East London Combined Heat and Power was formed in 1988 by the London Boroughs of Lewisham, Southwark and Greenwich to provide an alternative waste disposal strategy to landfill, members also included the Regional Electricity Company and Energy from Waste design, construction and operation specialists. Following an in-depth feasibility study, consultations, and an Environmental Impact Assessment for the proposed ERF, conditional Planning Permission for the project was granted in 1990 and in 1991 site clearance and construction began[2].
In 1992, SELCHP was the first Energy from Waste scheme to be granted an authorisation under the Integrated Pollution Control provisions of the Environmental Protection Act 1990. 1992 was also the year that SELCHP was awarded an Electricity Generation Licence by the Office of Electricity Regulation[2].
Construction and commissioning of the facility was complete in 1993, being officially opened in 1994 by HRH the Prince of Wales[2].
In 1998, a new system to reduce emissions of Nitrogen Oxide was installed to allow the facility to to meet the new emission levels required by the Environment Agency[2].
Initially, the facility was planned to produce heat as well as electricity, but due to political and legislative changes, this was not enabled when the plant was constructed. The pipe systems and equipment for the heat from the facility to be utilised was not installed completely until 2014, and has been in operation since then[3].
Plant
SELCHP is a successful commercial partnership between the public and private sectors. The partnering organisations that enabled this project to be achieved include: Veolia, iCON Infrastructure, Lewisham Council, Royal Borough of Greenwich, EDF Energy, ENER-G and John Laing plc.
The EPC contractor for this project was awarded to Martin Engineering Systems Ltd. The combustion technology implements the mass-burn process to incinerate waste[1].
SELCHP ERF is jointly owned by current operator Veolia Environmental Services and consortium CNIM Development, and in 2019, celebrated 25 years of operations[4].
Local Authority Users
The following represents those local authorities recorded as putting tonnage into the site (either directly or via a transfer station). 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). A 'zero return' below indicates no local authority tonnage was recorded, most likely a result of the plant being recently commissioned and actually having received no tonnage. Equally, lower than expected tonnage maybe a result of either 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.
