Summary
Also known as Enviropower, this is an EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology which is not considered an ERF as a result of not having R1 status. Lancing has permitted operational capacity of up to 75,000 tonnes per annum, and is owned and operated by Enviropower Ltd, a subsidiary of Rabbit Group. Delivery of waste is from the adjacent Rabbit transfer station which prepares the Waste Derived Fuel for the plant comprising a Wood Waste /Biomass rich RDF and as a result is listed both within the Residual Waste EFW and Biomass Waste EFW listings.
History
The Rabbit facility was opened in 2008 to primarily service residual Wood Waste from skips and construction sources, with later expansion into a wider specification RDF produced in the adjacent transfer station and is reported as costing £15m[1].
Plant
The plant comprises standard combustion, on 2 lines of Talbot Grates, generating super-heated steam, generating up to 5MWe for export to the national grid.
Tonnage Input/Fuel
The tonnage received by the plant in the most recent Annual Sustainability Report for 2018-19[2] was reported by Ofgem as follows:
| Biomass | Tonnage (2018-19) |
|---|---|
| Wood Waste | 63,754 |
| Other | 0 |
| Total | 63,754 |
The Wood Waste is received from a variety of sources, including Waste Disposal Authoritys, al lof which is processed in the adjacent transfer station prior to use in the Enviropower site. The Wood Waste 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) and are reported as 60,356 in the pull-out table to the right.
