Built by [[Keppel Seghers]] under a Design & Build [[EPC]]-turnkey contract. Phase 1 commenced in 2009 and was handed over in January 2015, and phase 2 commenced in 2010 and handed over in April 2015 at a contract value of GBP £390 million <ref>[http://www.keppelseghers.com/en/content.aspx?sid=3028 Keppel Sehers Website]</ref>.

The plant comprises 4 lines (2 in each phase) of standard combustion technology comprising [[Keppel Segher]]'s proprietary water-cooled grates, generating super-heated steam, and is configured to run on [[RDF]] with a 'design point' [[CV]] of 11.5MJ/kg

The following data comes from [[WasteDataFlow]] for the financial year 2018/19 and 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.
