Summary

An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology and presently in early stage construction. Slough Multifuel EFW was granted planning permission in 2017 and has a permitted capacity of 480,000 tonnes per annum. The site was purchased in 2008 by SSE and the project is being developed by a 50:50 joint venture between SEE Thermal and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP)[1].

The plant is located on the Slough Trading Estate, close to the Slough Heat & Power facility, which is based on biomass feedstock.

Technology

The plant technology will comprise standard moving grate technology, producing super-heated steam with an operational capacity of 545,000 tonnes per annum, generating 50MWe [2].

Construction

The plant gained planning permission in 2017, and will delivered by an EPC turnkey arrangement with Hitachi Zosen Inova technology. Construction is reported to commence in 2021 with a three and a half year construction programme for operational handover in Q4 2024..

Waste Input

The plant is intended to run on waste derived fuel from residual Household Waste and Commercial Waste, with around two thirds identified for long term contract.
