Our Proposal

The Recycling and Energy Recovery Facility is designed to remove recyclable waste from black bins and recover energy from what is left over. It will significantly reduce the amount of waste that is sent to landfill.

We propose to build our facility on the former wholesale market site off the East Leeds link road within the Cross Green Industrial Estate.

Our solution is to construct and operate a Recycling and Energy Recovery Facility with mechanical pre-sorting designed to remove recyclables before the combustion process.This technology is a safe and efficient way of treating residual black bin waste

Jobs and training for local people, opportunities for local businesses and environmental education are just some of the benefits that the community will see as the facility develops.

We have submitted an application to the Environment Agency for an Environmental Permit to operate a Recycling and Energy Recovery Facility at Cross Green, Leeds. Find out more.
