The facility has been developed by Veolia in partnership with CNIM Clugston Staffordshire Ltd and is helping Staffordshire County Council to reach its target of Zero Waste to Landfill. The facility will generate enough power for 35,000 homes and has created 40 new jobs.
The 25 year PFI contract is the biggest in Staffordshire County Councilâs history and is set to deliver tax savings to the residents of Staffordshire of about £10 million a year to a total of over £250 million during its twenty-five year life.
