Waste Recycling Group Named Preferred Bidder for Planned Waste to Energy Facility

 Waste Recycling Group (WRG), a UK waste management and energy recovery company has welcomed the decision by Buckinghamshire County Council to award it preferred bidder status for the Council's Waste to Energy (WtE) procurement project.

In October WRG submitted a planning application which it anticipates will be determined by Buckinghamshire County Council early next year.

WRG is proposing to build a 300,000 tonnes per year WtE facility at Lower Greatmoor Farm, adjacent to Calvert landfill site, to treat Buckinghamshire's residual non-hazardous household and commercial waste over the next 30 years.

The company claims that the facility will generate up to 22 MW of electricity for the local grid, and will include a new access road linking the site directly to the A41 via a new roundabout, thus significantly reducing the number of vehicles travelling through the villages of Calvert, Edgcott and Grendon Underwood.

WRG says that the proposed WtE plant at Calvert will use well proven technology provided by AE&E, an international plant engineering and construction company supplying power generation and environmental technologies.
