Summary

An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology, located at Earls Gate Park, Grangemouth in Scotland. The facility is forecast to have a maximum capacity of 215,000 tonnes per annum, and will be a Combined Heat and Power facility, exporting 21.5 MW electricity and heat to the nearby chemical company CalaChem and to other adjacent industrial plants, with any excess power fed into the national grid. The cost of the project is circa £200m, which was provided by the investors Brockwell Energy, the Green Investment Group and Covanta. The facility has been developed by Brockwell Energy, and will be operated by MES Environmental for a contract duration of 25 years. MES Environmental is now a subsidiary of Paprec, having agreed to buy out CNIM in March 2021[2].

The EfW will replace an existing gas-fired energy plant on the site.

It is expected for the facility to become operational by the end of 2021[3].

Technology

The moving-grate combustion technology will be provided by CNIM[4].

Construction

CNIM is the EPC contractor for this facility, with Clugston in charge of the civil engineering. Construction commenced in January 2019 and is scheduled to take 3 years, with commissioning ending and operations beginning in 2021[3].

Waste Input

The facility will accept residual waste as feedstock.
