Narrative description of the project

The plant is located in Cheshire, England (UK) and has a total annual capacity of 400,000 tons of non-recyclable waste, with 2 waste-to-energy lines with an annual capacity of 200,000 tons each. The Protos EfW – Energy from Waste facility will process two types of waste: the residual fraction of municipal solid waste (MSW) and commercial and industrial (C&I) waste. The Protos waste-to-energy plant is a project with high technical requirements in a highly competitive market. MYTILINEOS’ Sustainable Engineering Solutions Business Unit will be responsible for the integrated management of all construction phases (EPC) of the project and, to ensure the reliable and sustainable operation of the facility, critical equipment will be duplicated. The facility is scheduled to enter commercial operation in 2024. MYTILINEOS is the leader of the prestigious joint venture with Standardkessel Baumgarte GmbH (SBG), the world’s leading EfW technology provider, with a 55% share and is assigned as Prime Contractor and Lead Designer of the project…..
