Buckingham Group Contracting has bagged the site preparation package for a \u00a3500m energy recovery facility in North London.<\/p>\n
North London Waste Authority is planning a major 10-year building programme.<\/p>\n
This involves construction of the new facility\u00a0in the Lee Valley in\u00a0 Edmonton to replace the existing\u00a045-year-old waste incinerator.<\/p>\n
\n
Preparatory works will include installing works accommodation for the team on designated areas of Lee Valley Regional Park and preparing the laydown area to provide space to support construction onsite.<\/p>\n
The works have been scheduled to take place over the next 10 years and have been phased to allow the existing EfW facility to continue to operate during this time.<\/p>\n
Plans also include building a new reuse and recycling centre, as well as EcoPark House, an office block with a visitor reception centre.<\/p>\n
\n
The existing plant will be demolished in 2025 when the new energy recovery facility is operational.<\/p>\n
When complete it will be capable of incinerating 700,000 tonnes of non-recyclable residual waste every year and produce 50 megawatts of electricity, enough to power 127,000 homes.<\/p>\n
\n
It is estimated the \u00a3500m project could save up to \u00a3900m over 27 years.<\/p>\n
Chair of NLWA, Cllr Clyde Loakes says, \u201cThis is a momentous time for North London Waste Authority. The Project is pivotal for creating a more efficient solution to our waste that will better serve our residents. We are excited to start putting plans into action for a sustainable future of waste in north London.\u201d<\/p>\n
