Summary
An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. Leeds ERF, also known as Cross Green ERF, is located at Cross Green Industrial Estate in the city of Leeds. The facility has a permitted operational capacity of 214,000 tonnes per annum, exporting up to 11.6 MW electricity to the national grid after the plants own power needs are supplied for [1].
The plant is owned and operated by Veolia. The waste feedstock utilised at the plant is primarily residual waste arising from households and businesses located in the Leeds area.
History
Veolia signed a 25-year Public Finance Initiative (PFI) contract with Leeds City Council for residual municipal waste treatment and energy recovery in November 2012, beginning their partnership that obliged Veolia to build and operate the ERF facility for 25 years. Planning permission for the Recycling and Energy Recovery Facility was granted in April 2013, and construction of the ERF began in October 2013. The commissioning and construction phase ended and operations began in April 2016[1].
Plant
The ERF is co-located with a recycling facility. Clungsten undertook the EPC for this facility that employs CNIM technology, with TSP Projects acting as Lead Designers[3].
The contract to develop and operate this facility is worth approximately £460 million.
The architectural design of this ERF was of key consideration during the development process, an internationally renowned architect designed the building that is based upon the use of glass and timber framing. The design includes a green ‘living’ wall with habitat creation to the southern side and rainwater harvesting and sustainable drainage systems. The main building stands at a height of 42 m, with a stack height of 75 m[1].
Local Authority Users
Local Authority Data
The table below lists those local authorities who have recorded their tonnage on WasteDataFlow as sending their Waste to this site (either directly or via a transfer station) for the most recent financial year, data was updated on Error: no local variable "updated" has been set.. 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). The total Local Authority waste received by the plant in the period was: 0t
A 'zero return' or a below expected return, when compared to the EA Data below indicates that either:
- no local authority tonnage was recorded/no tonnage was sent to the site in the period (but has been listed as it may have previously received tonnage from a local authority) or
- a result of the plant being recently commissioned and actually having received no tonnage or
- a lower than expected tonnage maybe a result of a local authority splitting their tonnage over multiple sites, having less tonnage to send than might be anticipated or
- it may be 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 or
- the local authority may not have correctly entered the site's details on WasteDataFlow
