Brockwell Energy reaches financial close on Westfield Energy Recovery Facility in Fife

Brockwell Energy has reached financial close on the Westfield Energy from Waste (EfW) facility in Fife, Scotland.

The proposed plant will support the pending landfill ban by providing essential waste disposal capacity that will be needed to deal with projected residual waste disposal volumes. The plant will also be a catalyst for the re-development of one of the largest derelict brownfield former coal mining sites in Central Scotland.

Switzerland-based Hitachi Inova Zosen (HZI) will design, build and operate the facility.

Construction is due to commence on the 240,000t facility in February 2022, and the plant is expected to be fully operational early in 2025.
