Energy Park Peterborough, which was granted consent by the Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC) last November, will take in mixed waste and recycle and remanufacture it. Through a three stage process of mechanical recycling, biomass gasification and plasma vitrification, the Energy Park will produce renewable energy, glass, building blocks, metals and compounds. The zero waste to landfill solution will save 600,000 tonnes of CO2 per year, create green collar jobs in the local community and produce enough renewable energy to power 60,000 homes.
