==Technology==
The plant is understood to be a 3 line, grate based technology by [[Biomass Power Limited]] which is now part of [[Vital Energi]], generating steam to turbines delivering 18MWe gross (15MWe net) and will be CHP enabled.
 
==Construction==
The plant is to be delivered by [[Vital Energi]] and is due to be operational in 2023 <ref>[https://www.letsrecycle.com/news/latest-news/vital-energi-efw/ Letsrecycle Article]</ref>.
 
==Waste Input==
The plant is listed to run on 169,000 tonnes per year of prepared [[RDF]] from offsite company [[Beauparc]] under an exclusive [[Fuel Supply Agreement]].
