Summary
Millerhill Energy from Waste facility has been developed, constructed and is being operated through a 25-year partnership between FCC Environment, the Edinburgh City Council and the Midlothian Council. The feedstock utilised at this plant is non-hazardous residual waste, processing 135,000 tonnes per year of this material originating from households within the Edinburgh and Midlothian regions, and a remainder 20,000 tonnes per year originating from businesses. It is located at what used to be a brownfield site between the active railway yards operated by Network Rail and the former Monktonhall Colliery with good access to rail and road routes, enabling it to manage waste from both Edinburgh City and the Midlothian Councils[1].
This EfW is a Combined Heat and Power facility, supplying 4,600 domestic premises with heat, it is able to produce up to 12 MW of electricity and 20 MW of heat through a combustion system [2].
History
The contract to build the Millerhill EfW was signed in October 2016 by FCC and the City of Edinburgh and Midlothian Councils, after FCC was selected as the preferred bidder by the partnership Zero Waste: Edinburgh and Midlothian to design, construct, finance and operate the plant. The facility began construction in December 2016 and was scheduled to take 30 months to complete, commencing accepting waste and commissioning in November 2018 and full operations in June 2019, ahead of schedule[1].
In 2020 FCC formed Green Recovery Projects Ltd, a new company for its Energy from Waste portfolio to allow the subsequent sale of 49% to Icon Infrastructure. This included Millerhill EfW[3].
Plant
FCC Environment appointed Hitachi Zosen Inova (HZI)[4] and FCC Medio Ambiente SA to undertake the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) and to supply the technology utilised in the plant as a joint venture, costing £142m to develop[1]. Millerhill EfW is co-located with a materials recycling facility.
Local Authority Users
The following represents those local authorities recorded as putting tonnage into the site (either directly or via a transfer station). The tonnage received cannot be directly compared with the stated historical tonnage received and recorded in the EA statistics as these are recorded on a calendar year basis (i.e. January 2018 to December 2018). A 'zero return' below indicates no local authority tonnage was recorded, most likely a result of the plant being recently commissioned and actually having received no tonnage. Equally, lower than expected tonnage maybe a result of either a new plant being in 'ramp up' towards full capacity after construction, or may be a result of plant shut down and subsequent re-start in a year.
