==Context and Definition==

If an [[Incineration]] facility can be shown to meet the energy efficiency measurement of [[R1]] it can be classified as a [[recovery]] facility, if it cannot it is classified as a [[disposal]] facility<ref>https://data.gov.uk/dataset/8287c81b-2288-4f14-9068-52bfda396402/r1-status-of-incinerators-in-england</ref>. This means that an incinerator that generates power, and is a net exporter of power~~, but does not meet the energy efficiency of [[R1]]~~, can be described as an ~~'''~~[[Energy from Waste]]~~'''~~ ([[EfW]]) facility. An incinerator that meets the [[R1]] criteria is the only type of incinerator under the legislation that can legitimately describe itself as an '''[[Energy Recovery Facility]]''' ([[ERF]]).
