The EnviRecover new energy from waste plant is on plot of some 8.4 acres on the Hartlebury Trading Estate, near Kidderminster.

Mercia has awarded the main construction contract to the Swiss-based technology provider, Hitachi Zosen Inova (HZI). This company has a wealth of experience in Energy from Waste plant and related technologies, and has been involved in seven similar projects in the UK to date.

Construction commenced in May 2014 and handover is due to take place in the spring of 2017. The first waste to be delivered into the plant as part of commissioning trials will be in the autumn of 2016. The construction phase of the project will take 33 months with commissioning of the plant due in the spring of 2017.

When complete the facility will treat up to 200,000 tonnes of residual municipal waste a year under its long-term PFI-backed contract with Herefordshire Council and Worcestershire County Council.
