WASTE RECYCLING
Andusia in sole supply 25 year deal to new South Wales plant
ANDUSIA Resource Recovery is pleased to announce that it has been confirmed as the sole waste supplier to a new Energy from Waste (EfW) plant currently under construction in Newport, South Wales.
Construction of the Alexandra Docks plant starts early this year and is scheduled for completion in early 2022.
Andusia will be supplying a minimum of 220,000 tonnes of Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) per annum under a 25 year deal. Once operational, the plant will provide enough energy to the grid to power 50,000 homes each year.
The announcement comes at an exciting time for Andusia, with 2020 looking to be another busy year. Clinitek’s hazardous waste plant in Malvern, for which Andusia is sole supplier, will be fully operational in
the next couple of months, an array of new export supply contracts commence and the Andusia team has expanded once more.
Director, Mark Terrell, commented: “We are delighted to have signed such an extensive sole waste supplier contract in the UK. Andusia are committed to supporting new UK infrastructure and will continue to work with both investors and developers to bridge the gap between waste suppliers and plants”.
Fuel supply risk can lead developers to struggle to get the third-party financing they need to build a new plant. As an experienced aggregator, Andusia are able to pull waste from a number of different sources, spreading risk of supply and guaranteeing best value. Enabling developers to obtain the 10-year plus fixed price supply contract that is often required to gain investment.

Ferrybridge Multifuel 2 enters commercial operation
FERRYBRIDGE Multifuel 2 (FM2), one of the UK’s most efficient energy-from waste facilities, has now entered full commercial operation.
The new energy-from-waste facility in West Yorkshire has been developed by Multifuel Energy Ltd, a 50:50 joint venture between by SSE and Wheelabrator Technologies, at a total cost of £325m.
The facility is capable of handling up to 675,000 tonnes of waste-derived fuels annually, diverting the waste away from landfill and instead using it as a valuable source of energy. At 70MW, FM2 will generate enough energy to power around 180,000 homes, while playing
26
a key role in the UK’s sustainable waste management.
The new FM2 facility was designed and built by Hitachi Zosen Inova (HZI) after its sister facility, Ferrybridge Multifuel 1 (FM1), achieved commercial operation in July 2015.
At peak construction about 1,000 people were working on the site, and 43 full-time roles have now been created to operate and maintain the facility on an on-going basis.
Tom Maillet, managing director for Multifuel Energy Ltd, said: “We’re delighted to have achieved commercial
operation at Ferrybridge Multifuel 2, which is a fantastic accomplishment for everyone that has been involved in the project over the last three years.
“A big thank you to local residents for their cooperation and patience throughout the construction period. We are now focused on operating the plant safely, efficiently and effectively.”
Harry Becker, project director for HZI, said: “Even after years in the business, it’s still fascinating to see how complex large- scale projects like FM2 steadily progress until we can finally hand over a ready-to- run plant to the customer.”
