Teeside EfW - lines 1-5 (Teeside & NEERC), Billingham. line 3
A site with two adjacent EfW facilities based upon it, with 5 process lines (lines 1,2 and 3 often known as Suez Tees Valley and lines 4 and 5 often known as The North East Energy Recovery Centre or NEERC). Based on conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on multiple R1 status/classifications for the lines. The combined permitted operational capacity is around 642,000 tonnes per annum, and is operated and owned by Suez. Delivery of waste is by rail and road and the facility processes primarily residual Household Waste and Commercial Waste.

Summary
A site with two adjacent EfW facilities based upon it, with 5 process lines (lines 1,2 and 3 often known as Suez Tees Valley and lines 4 and 5 often known as The North East Energy Recovery Centre or NEERC). Based on conventional combustion technology and considered an ERF based on multiple R1 status/classifications for the lines. The combined permitted operational capacity is around 642,000 tonnes per annum, and is operated and owned by Suez. Delivery of waste is by rail and road and the facility processes primarily residual Household Waste and Commercial Waste.
History
The facilities were built at Teeside (often also known as Billingham and/or Haverton Hill) in 3 phases. Lines 1, 2 were opened in May 1998 as a collaboration between Suez and Stockton, Middlesbrough, and Redcar & Cleveland with a capacity of around 250,000 tonnes per annum. Line 3 was built and opened in May 2009 (operational 2008) as an extension to the first two lines, and as part of a PPP with Northumberland signed in 2006 for 28 years with a capacity of 136,000 tonnes per annum. Lines 4 and 5 link to a PFI serving the South Tyne & Wear Partnership in a separate building with a capacity of 256,000 tonnes per annum, giving a total capacity for the site of 642,000 tonnes per annum. A further plant secured planning in 2014 on the same site in Haverton Hill, and is the process of being developed to deliver a further 200,000 tonnes per annum of capacity in 2022 [1]. This site and the planned site are discrete from the operational plant at Wilton.
Plant
The original plant and first two lines were built by Babcock & Wilcox Volund with the third line built by AE&E Inova AG which is now Hitachi Zosen Inova AG (part of the Hitachi Zosen Corporation)[2]. Line 3 was a turnkey line processing 19 tonnes/hour and generating 26 MWe from a conventional combustion technology, a Hitachi Zosen Inova Grate R-100060 air cooled grate based on a CV of between 7.6 and 12.5MJ/kg and is called Cleveland in the company literature[3]. Lines 4 and 5 were of similar capacity and specification for each line as per the third line installed (i.e. 26 MWe per line or 52 MWe in total) processing 256,000 tonnes per annum on the basis of the same CV and at a capital cost of GBP £150m and is called Cleveland 4+5 in the company literature [4].
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.
