The EcoPark South redevelopment is the first phase of the North London Waste Authority’s plans for a new sustainable waste hub – the North London Heat and Power Project (NLHPP). Having diverted over 21 million tonnes of rubbish from landfill since it first opened in 1971, the site is now benefiting from £1.2bn worth of investment to continue its essential work.
Additionally, non-recyclable waste will be processed at the energy recovery facility and generate up to 70 megawatts of electricity, enough to power around 127,000 homes as well as provide residual heat to a local heat network.
A modern visitor and education centre will provide space for the local community to learn more about the importance of a circular economy, their role in responsible recycling, and the overall reduction of the carbon footprint of waste.
Our Solution
In partnership with Taylor Woodrow and Race Cottam Associates Limited, Rotec supplied and installed an extensive 70 steel door package throughout the project including high-security, fire, acoustic, and general-purpose doors.
Following a technical review, our in-house estimating team identified significant value engineering solutions through an over-specification of the security doors. Our long-term industry and sector knowledge allowed us to suggest alternative products that still provided security protection that did not compromise steel door specification and compliance standards.
Having worked on several Energy from Waste facilities over the years, including Avonmouth, Earlsgate, and Kemsley, we were confident in our ability to deliver the project to a high-quality completion.
