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]].{{EfWTemplate|EPR={{#var:epr}}|id=67}}__TOC__<br clear='left' /> | An integrated [[EfW]] facility with other treatment technologies at the Isle of Wight site in Newport.

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]]<ref>https://www.iow.gov.uk/news/Energy-from-waste-provider-announced Isle of Wight Council Announcement]</ref>. | The original [[Gasification]] approach was based upon the [[Energos]] technology.
