Summary

An EfW facility based upon Gasification technology. The Levenseat facility had forecast operational capacity of 400,000 tonnes per annum, but in June 2019 this was reported as being consented to increase to 750,000 tonnes per annum, incorporating an earlier consent to increase the ATT plant to receive 500,000 tonnes per annum by 2023. Levenseat Renewable Energy Limited is an offshoot of Levenseat Ltd and had investment from Green Investment Bank, Foresight Group and Zouk Capital and debt from Investec Bank when it reached financial close in March 2015 for GBP£111m[1][2].

Technology

The plant is a single line, fluidised bed Gasification plant by Outotec, generating super-heated steam[3]. The capacity of 250,000 tonnes per annum is to be doubled with the installation of a second line/plant.

Construction

The plant commenced construction in 2015 under a turnkey EPC contract with MW High Tech Projects UK. The current EfW plant is not reported as fully commissioned and operational as yet.

Waste Input

The plant is designed to run on RDF manufactured from residual Household Waste and Commercial Waste, with preparation on site in an adjacent, larger scale MRF.
