Scheme Updates

Since Autumn 2019, the project team has been working with the relevant technology providers to optimise the scheme. The most significant change that has come out of the discussion is that the proposed Boston Alternative Energy Facility will move away from using gasification technology to more traditional thermal treatment energy from waste technology.

There will be a new informal consultation process that will inform stakeholders about the changes. This is expected to be launched in July and will include a mailshot to all residents in the Boston Borough catchment area. The details will inform you on how you can provide your comment and opinions on the proposed changes. The project team will take these comments and opinions into account when preparing the final assessment work and application for consent.

Details will follow shortly.
