Summary
According to a statement from Viridor, the two companies are now beginning the “exciting journey to develop potential projects together” to capture heat from the facilities.
Once captured, the heat will be “delivered through pipes developed and operated by Vattenfall to homes and businesses in the area, providing clean, affordable heat”, the statement added.
Viridor operates 11 EfW facilities across the UK and says it “is continuing to expand its operations in new locations”.
These include plants near areas of urban regeneration which “present great opportunities for new-build and existing properties to be served by district heating networks in the coming years”.
Mike Reynolds, managing director at Vattenfall Heat UK commented: “It made perfect sense for one of the market leaders in energy recovery facilities to collaborate with one of the market leaders in delivering clean heat to customers across Europe. This type of cooperation is important to Vattenfall as we build out our business in conjunction with key players in the UK energy landscape. We have a shared vision of serving our communities with clean, efficient and low-cost services. Together we will be able to really inspire bolder and braver thinking and ultimately faster decarbonisation.”
