Summary

An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. Portsmouth ERF, also known as Integra South East, is located on an industrial site in the city of Portsmouth, Hampshire, making it the only inner-city EfW facility in the county. The facility has a permitted operational capacity of 210,000 tonnes per annum, exporting up to 14 MW electricity to the national grid after the plants own power needs are supplied for[1].

The plant is owned and operated by Veolia. The waste feedstock utilised at the plant is primarily residual waste arising from households and businesses located in Portsmouth City and the South East Hampshire Districts[1].

History

This facility has been developed and continues to be managed under the 28-year Public Private Partnership contract with Hampshire County Council, Southampton City Council and Portsmouth City Council[1].

Portsmouth ERF completed construction and commissioning, and became operational in spring 2005, following this, in 2006 the Portsmouth ERF was presented with a Design Award by the Portsmouth Civic Society. The ERF has also gained the prestigious Edmund Hambly Medal award from the Institute of Civil Engineering for creative design in an engineering project that makes a substantial contribution to sustainable development[1].

Plant

The ERF is situated adjacent to the Portsmouth MRF[1].

Due to this EfW being located in an urban area, special consideration was given to its architectural design. This was given high priority throughout the development process, with a specialist architect designated to the project who developed a design of high architectural merit[2].

The combustion technology is the Martin GmbH reverse acting grate with a two lines[3]. The EPC contractor to build the plant was CNIM, who also supplied the semi-dry lime scrubber for treatment of the flue gas which is followed by high performance bag filters, discharging into a 65 metre high chimney[2].

Project Integra is a unique partnership between Hampshire County Council, the two Unitary Authorities of Southampton and Portsmouth, the 11 District Councils and Veolia Environmental Services.

Local Authority Users

Local Authority Data

The table below lists those local authorities who have recorded their tonnage on WasteDataFlow as sending their Waste to this site (either directly or via a transfer station) for the most recent financial year, data was updated on 2023-04-26. 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). The total Local Authority waste received by the plant in the period was: 127,919.17t

A 'zero return' or a below expected return, when compared to the EA Data below indicates that either:

  • no local authority tonnage was recorded/no tonnage was sent to the site in the period (but has been listed as it may have previously received tonnage from a local authority) or
  • a result of the plant being recently commissioned and actually having received no tonnage or
  • a lower than expected tonnage maybe a result of a local authority splitting their tonnage over multiple sites, having less tonnage to send than might be anticipated or
  • it may be 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 or
  • the local authority may not have correctly entered the site's details on WasteDataFlow
