==Summary==
An [[EfW]] facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an [[ERF]] based on its [[R1]] status. The Allerton site has permitted operational capacity of 320,000 tonnes per annum, and is operated by [[AmeyCespa]]. Delivery of waste is by road and the facility processes primarily residual [[Household Waste]] and some [[Commercial Waste]]<ref>[https://wasteservices.amey.co.uk/where-we-work/north-yorkshire/ Amey Website]</ref>. 

==History==
The Allerton facility was built primarily to service a 25 year [[PPP]] contract signed in 2010 between and [[North Yorkshire County Council]] and [[York City Council]], for 230,000 tones per annum of the anticipated total throughput of up to 320,000 tonnes per annum. The plant has an integrated [[Mechanical Biological Treatment]] process with mechanical sorting of organics for subsequent processing in [[Anaerobic Digestion]] and then [[EfW]] of the [[RDF]] material produced<ref>[https://www.letsrecycle.com/news/latest-news/ameys-allerton-efw-declared-fully-operational/ Letsrecycle Article]</ref>.

==Plant==
Built by [[Vinci Environment UK]] (a 50/50 subsidiary of [[Vinci Construction UK]] and [[Vinci Environment]]) under a Design & Build-turnkey contract, construction started in early 2015 and was completed in March 2018 at a reported<ref>[https://www.letsrecycle.com/news/latest-news/ameys-allerton-efw-begins-waste-treatment/ Letsrecycle Article]</ref> GBP £183m capital cost.
The plant comprises 2 lines of 20 tonnes/hour with a design capacity capable of treating 330,000 tonnes per annum via standard combustion technology, air cooled, Vinci Grate, generating super-heated steam, and is configured to run on residual [[Household Waste]] and [[Commercial Waste]] delivering 25 MWe of power<ref>[https://www.vinci.com/commun/communiques.nsf/EE061B4F38B090F1C1257DC7005A27EE/$file/VINCI-Yorkshire_energy_from_waste-En.pdf Vinci Press Release]</ref>.
