Summary
Millerhill Energy from Waste facility has been developed, constructed and is being operated through a 25-year partnership between FCC Environment, the Edinburgh City Council and the Midlothian Council. The feedstock utilised at this plant is non-hazardous residual waste, processing 135,000 tonnes per year of this material originating from households within the Edinburgh and Midlothian regions, and a remainder 20,000 tonnes per year originating from businesses. It is located at what used to be a brownfield site between the active railway yards operated by Network Rail and the former Monktonhall Colliery with good access to rail and road routes, enabling it to manage waste from both Edinburgh City and the Midlothian Councils[1].
This EfW is a Combined Heat and Power facility, supplying 4,600 domestic premises with heat, it is able to produce up to 12 MW of electricity and 20 MW of heat through a combustion system [2].
History
The contract to build the Millerhill EfW was signed in October 2016 by FCC and the City of Edinburgh and Midlothian Councils, after FCC was selected as the preferred bidder by the partnership Zero Waste: Edinburgh and Midlothian to design, construct, finance and operate the plant. The facility began construction in December 2016 and was scheduled to take 30 months to complete, commencing accepting waste and commissioning in November 2018 and full operations in June 2019, ahead of schedule[1].
In 2020 FCC formed Green Recovery Projects Ltd, a new company for its Energy from Waste portfolio to allow the subsequent sale of 49% to Icon Infrastructure. This included Millerhill EfW[3].
Plant
FCC Environment appointed Hitachi Zosen Inova (HZI)[4] and FCC Medio Ambiente SA to undertake the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) and to supply the technology utilised in the plant as a joint venture, costing £142m to develop[1]. Millerhill EfW is co-located with a materials recycling facility.
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
