About the Project

Carefully sited in the former Rookery South brick clay extraction pit, the location was selected for its excellent transport links, central position within the waste catchment area, and natural topography, which helps integrate the facility into the surrounding landscape. Built by Kanadevia Inova and commissioned in partnership with Covanta, Green Investment Group, and Veolia, the plant strengthens the UK’s move toward energy self-sufficiency and reduced reliance on landfill and waste exports.
