Summary
An EfW facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on its R1 status. Lakeside has permitted operational capacity of 450,000 tonnes per annum, operated by Lakeside Energy from Waste Ltd a joint venture between Viridor and Grundon. Delivery of waste is by road, with a location close to the M25/M4 intersection, and the facility processes primarily residual Household Waste and Commercial Waste[1]. The construction of the third runway at Heathrow Airport will necessitate the movement of the facility, with plans submitted in June 2019 to Slough Borough Council [2].
History
The Lakeside facility was built to service a number of local authorities in the region, originally including Poole, Wiltshire, RE3 Partnership (comprising the Berkshire authorities of Bracknell, Wokingham and Reading) and WLWA (before its contract to send material to Avonmouth), with anticipated total throughput of up to 440,000 tonnes per annum - receiving additional residual Commercial Waste to those authorities listed below.
Plant
Built by Itochu-Takuma under an EPC-turnkey contract and was delivered in January 2010 at a reported [3] £160m capital cost, comprising conventional moving grate combustion technology and generating a design output of 37MWe (vs the capacity of 30MWe listed).
