The UK has a significant shortage of EfW facilities, such as Northacre, to dispose of all the non-recyclable rubbish we all produce. The operating facilities in neighbouring counties are already functioning at full capacity and even if we achieve the government’s ambitious target of 65% recycling by 2035, we will still need more facilities, like Northacre, to avoid sending material to landfill.
Why can this waste not be sent to other facilities?
