Wheelabrator Kemsley North Project Development (2018-Present)

1 Unit Waste-to-Energy Facility with steam turbine generator – 390,000 metric tonnes per year capacity – Estimated Capital Cost £280MM

  • Supporting the ongoing development effort for a new EfW facility adjacent to the K3 CHP site

  • Provided input on conceptual layouts used for Development Consent Order (DCO) planning application; ensuring the facility could be constructed and operated without impacting the K3 site

  • Developed strategy for implementation of lessons learned from K3 and optimization of K3 resources to minimize O&M costs to both facilities

K4 CHP Proposal Effort for DS Smith (2017)

Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) Combined Heat and Power (CHP) facility – Estimated Capital Cost £89MM

  • Technical project lead on response to RFI issued by DS Smith to replace an existing CCGT CHP facility to supply steam and power to the Kemsley Paper Mill

  • Led the RFQ response team effort, including technology selection per RFP requirements, O&M model development, capital cost estimate, and proposal writing of technical sections

  • Executed an exclusive partnership with Siemens as EPC contractor and technology provider, as their SGT-800 gas turbine was uniquely suited to the client’s application If successful, WTI would have been the sole steam and power provider to the Kemsley mill, as the K3 CHP Energy-from-Waste (EfW) facility was being constructed concurrently

  • DS Smith selected the incumbent CHP operator, E.On, to develop the new facility
