Summary
An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. Cornwall has permitted operational capacity of 249,000 tonnes per annum, operated and owned by Cornwall Energy Recovery Ltd, owned by Pensions Infrastructure Platform, i-Environment Investments and Suez with the latter operating the facility. Delivery of waste is by road and the facility processes primarily residual Household Waste and some Commercial Waste[1]
History
The Cornwall facility was built as part of a PFI contract with Cornwall Council which runs to 2039 and includes the operation of HWRC sites and MRFs in the county. The tonnage provided requires a large proportion of tonnage to be sourced from outside Cornwall, which has proved controversial[2]. It is located on the outskirts of St. Dennis and has been operational since March 2017[3].
Plant
Built by Vinci Environment UK (a 50/50 subsidiary of Vinci Construction UK and Vinci Environment) under a Design & Build-turnkey contract, construction was completed in March 2018 at a reported[4] £141m capital cost. The plant comprises 2 lines via standard combustion technology, generating super-heated steam, and is configured to run on primarily residual Household Waste and similar residual Commercial Waste generating 16.6MWe of power [5].
