Summary
An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. Newhaven has permitted operational capacity of 242,000 tonnes per annum, and is owned and operated by Veolia. Delivery of waste is primarily by road, and the facility processes primarily residual Household Waste.
History
The Newhaven facility was built to service primarily residual Household Waste (and similar Commercial Waste from the local area) based on a 30 year PFI contract between Veolia and East Sussex and Brighton signed in June 2011 and completing in 2033 [1].
Plant
Built by the predecessor of Hitachi Zosen Inova, Von Roll Inova, under a Design & Build EPC-turnkey contract in a consortium with Hochief UK for civil engineering. Construction started in 2008 and was delivered 2011 at a reported[2] GBP £260m capital cost. The plant comprises 2 lines of 14.5 tonnes/hour design capacity capable of treating 226,000 tonnes per annum via standard combustion technology, air cooled, Hitachi Zosen Inova Grate, generating super-heated steam, and is configured to run on residual Household Waste and up to 10% Clinical Waste with a CV of between 7.0 and 12.5MJ/kg to deliver 19.25MWe of power.
Local Authority Users
The following data comes from WasteDataFlow for the financial year 2018/19 and 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.
