Isle of Wight Waste Recovery Park
An integrated EfW facility with other treatment technologies at the Isle of Wight site in Newport. The original plan was to retrofit the old EfW facility with new Gasification technology but following complications with the retrofit process the technology was changed in 2017 to a conventional combustion process technology. The EfW element of the Isle of Wight facility has a permitted operational capacity of 44,000 tonnes per annum, and has been developed, and will be operated by, AmeyCespa under its long term PPP contract with the Isle of Wight.

Summary
An integrated EfW facility with other treatment technologies at the Isle of Wight site in Newport. The original plan was to retrofit the old EfW facility with new Gasification technology but following complications with the retrofit process the technology was changed in 2017 to a conventional combustion process technology. The EfW element of the Isle of Wight facility has a permitted operational capacity of 44,000 tonnes per annum, and has been developed, and will be operated by, AmeyCespa under its long term PPP contract with the Isle of Wight.
Technology
The original Gasification approach was based upon the Energos technology. The new solution is a two-stage conventional combustion approach on a fixed grate by Michaelis Environmental Technology[1].
Construction
The new technology approach commenced construction in 2017 and was forecast for completion in spring 2019[2] but presently forecast to complete in summer 2021[3]. In May 2022 it was reported that there has been commissioning issues with the plant, with handover now planned July 2022 following continuous 30 day performance test requirements[4]
Waste Input
The input material is residual Household Waste under the PPP with the Isle of Wight and some local residual Commercial Waste.
