Summary

In Nov 2017, MVV entered into a contract with Dundee City Council and Angus Council to take over and operate this existing energy from waste facility whilst buiding a new, modern facility next door (Dundee EfW CHP Facility).[1].

The facility first began operations in 1994 and receives 120,000 tonnes of waste a year collected from Dundee, Angus and Aberdeenshire Council areas. The facility primarily accepts Municipal Solid Waste and Household Waste but does allow some Commercial Waste to be treated.

The plant is due to close when the new facility Dundee EfW CHP Facility becomes fully operational.

History

The EFW plant at Baldovie was for many years the only municipal waste fired EfW plant in mainland Scotland. It suffered a major fire in 2012 and was later refurbished at a cost of £13.5m.[2]

It was previously owned and operated by Dundee Energy Recovery Ltd, a local authority owned company.

Plant

The incineration process carried out by the plant burns mainly household Waste and Commercial Waste in two 17 MW thermal input bubbling fluidised bed boilers (which at the time were the first in operation in the UK). The plant generates 10.5 MWe of electrical output with 8.3 MWe exported to the National Grid. The plant is designed to treat 120,000 tonnes of waste per year with each boiler capacble of burning waste at a nominal design rate of 7.6 tonnes/hr per boiler.[3]
