CEWEP Welcomes New Member from UK

NLWA is responsible of waste management for the waste collected in seven London borough, amounting to approximately 850,000 tonnes a year. Complementary to re-use and recycling facilities, NLWA’s Edmonton Waste-to-Energy plant processes around 500,000 tonnes of residual waste yearly, producing enough electricity to supply 85,000 homes.

“Waste-to-Energy is a fundamental part in fully integrated waste management systems, and we are happy to welcome a new member which demonstrates such a holistic approach where education, prevention, recycling and energy recovery work together.

The North London Heat and Power Project shows that NLWA shares CEWEP’s goals: landfill diversion, energy and resource efficiency, and high environmental standards” says CEWEP President Ferdinand Kleppmann.
