Summary
An integrated EfW facility with other treatment technology, with the EfW based upon Gasification technology and not considered an ERF based on not having R1 status. Sinfin Lane has permitted operational capacity of 190,000 tonnes per annum, although the EfW element of the facility is thought to be slightly less than this. It was developed and is operated by Resource Recovery Solutions, a subsidiary of Renewi, although it is reported that the contract has been terminated and a new operating partner is being sought[1].
History
The Sinfin Lane facility was built as an integrated solution primarily to service a 27 year PPP contract with Derbyshire County Council and Derby City Council signed in July 2010 to process around 190,000 tonnes per annum and was due to run to 2042. The facility diverts the 190,000 tonnes per annum from Landfill via a combination of Mechanical Biological Treatment, with the RDF output sent to the adjacent ATT/Gasification facility. The capacity of the ATT/Gasification is assumed to be slightly less than 190,000 tonnes per annum, operating over 3 lines[2] (the reported power output of 7.5MWe is more consistent with a single line 93,000 tonnes per annum plant as per Milton Keynes).
Plant
Originally built by Interserve under an EPC contract which started in 2014 (with a 2017 completion date) with the Gasification technology delivered by Energos, the contract was delayed through commissioning and the MBT plant suffered complaints of odour. Originally estimated to cost £145m as a joint venture between Interserve and Renewi and funded by the Green Investment Bank[3]. Due to the accumulated losses by Interserve on this project and the Glasgow project led to Interserve exiting the EfW market in early 2017[4]
Local Authority Users
The following represents those local authorities recorded as putting tonnage into the site (either directly or via a transfer station). 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). A 'zero return' below indicates no local authority tonnage was recorded, most likely a result of the plant being recently commissioned and actually having received no tonnage. Equally, lower than expected tonnage maybe a result of either 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.
