"Britain could soon end up with more residual waste treatment capacity than it needs if all schemes with planning permission go ahead, according to a research consultancy.
"... If all currently consented facilities, which have a total capacity of 18.2 million tonnes, go ahead, the current shortfall would turn into an oversupply of 4.7 million tonnes’ capacity by 2015/16, according to Eunomia."
"Eunomia
has modelled the quantity of residual waste generated against existing
and forthcoming treatment infrastructure, to determine where capacity
gaps exist across Great Britain.
"The research shows that, in most regions, there may be an over-supply of treatment infrastructure by 2015/16."
