The Greatmoore WtE plant thermally treats 300,000 tonnes of municipal waste a year – all in a single line. This guarantees a high level of availability, which is crucially important to the waste treatment process. With net efficiency of more than 25%, the plant generates 27.7 MW of electricity, enough to supply around 36,000 homes.
