Indaver has signed a contract to operate an energy from waste facility for the local authorities in Northeast Scotland. The NESS Energy Project in Aberdeen is capable of processing 150,000 tonnes of municipal solid waste every year to generate electricity. 

Acciona will lead the project using its own in-house construction skills to build the plant, and it will rely on the expertise of Indaver for the operation of the plant for a 20 year period.

Energy from Waste provides a sustainable way of managing residual waste. Waste-to-energy technology plays a critical role in a well-functioning integrated waste management system. Waste delivered to the NESS facility is processed through a grate incinerator, with the electricity created from this process dispatched to the relevant national grid, with a small amount used to run the facility itself.

In Aberdeen, the Energy from Waste plant to service the Aberdeen City Council, Aberdeenshire Council and Moray Council areas will be connected to a district heat network in East Tullos which will heat homes in the nearby Torry area. This facility provides a local, long term, sustainable solution for managing waste that cannot be recycled.
