==Summary==

An [[EfW]] facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an [[ERF]] based on its [[R1]] status. Ferrybridge FM1 has permitted operational capacity of 570,000 tonnes per annum, and is owned and operated by [[Multifuel Energy Ltd]] a 50:50 joint venture between [[Wheelabrator]] and [[SSE]]. Delivery of waste is primarily by road, and the facility processes primarily [[RDF]] but is able to process a range of other [[Waste Derived Fuel]], hence its 'Multifuel' name<ref>[https://www.wtienergy.co.uk/plant-locations/waste-energy/ferrybridge-multifuel-facility-fm1 Wheelabrator Website]</ref>.

==History==

The Ferrybridge FM1 facility was built to service primarily residual [[Household Waste]], [[Commercial Waste]], [[RDF]], [[SRF]] and [[Wood Waste]] giving it flexibility in the market. The core tonnage for the plant was secured via [[Renewi]]'s [[MBT]] plants at [[Rotherham]], [[Cumbria]] and [[Wakefield]] which supply 200,000 tonnes per year of the core tonnage under a [[PPP]]. It is located on the old Ferrybridge 'C' coal fire power station near Knottingley and has [[Ferrybridge Multifuel 2 (FM2)]] located adjacent to it, on the same [[SSE]] site. The combined FM1 and FM2 are capable of processing 1,140,000 tonnes per annum, making it the biggest [[Residual Waste EFW]] site in the UK.
