Every year the residents and businesses in north London produce around 2.3 million tonnes of waste with another 2.2 million tonnes of construction, demolition and excavation waste . The amount of municipal waste collected has been increasing at a rate of approximately 3% each year and although arisings have fallen in recent years, the London Plan assumes that arisings will steadily rise in line with expected growth in housing in north London . 1.2.2 The Government and the European Union have recognised that it is not sustainable to continue sending waste to landfill. A framework of legislation, guidance and fiscal measures has been introduced to discourage the use of landfill in the future. 1.2.3 The Mayor of London has also set an overall target for London to become self-sufficient in the management of its waste by 2031. To ensure that London achieves self-sufficiency, each borough has been asked to manage a rising proportion of total waste arising within its area (apportionment target). Enfield has pooled its individual apportionments with the six other north London boroughs (Barnet, Camden, Hackney, Haringey, Islington and Waltham Forest), and together the boroughs are preparing the North London Waste Plan (NLWP) to ensure that sufficient capacity for waste management is provided across the sub region. The Edmonton EcoPark is identified and safeguarded as an existing and strategic waste site in Enfield’s adopted Core Strategy and the draft NLWP as it is crucial to helping to meet apportionment. The EcoPark is also safeguarded as a Strategic Industrial Location (SIL) under Core Strategy Policy 14. 1.2.4 The internationally accepted hierarchy of waste management, as illustrated in Figure 1.3 'The Waste Hierarchy' below, is being used to drive change in the way waste is dealt with. ¸ b f ` k n j c p e q f g k j ] ^ _ ` a b c d e f a e f b g e h _ ^ i h j _ f f k f l m ^ k n ` o h ] x y z { | } ~ ´ } µ } ¶ y } | | ¦ ¤ ¡ s N § ¤ ¥ § ¦ ¥ ¤ ¡ ¥ £ ¦ M § A N ¥ ¦ ¥ W ¥ N £ L ¢ ¦ r ¢ § ¤ ¥ N ¢ ¢ ¥ N ¥ ¤ A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § ¤ N ¥ ¥ ¤ ¤ § C ' & ¢ £ £ ¦ ¤ N ¥ ¤ ¤ ¢ ¦ ¥ ¤ ¢ N ¢ ¢ ¥ r ¢ § ¤ ¥ ¤ ¡ ¥ N § ¤ § § ¤ ¢ ¢ t L ¥ r ¢ B £ § § t L ¥ u \ ¢ L ¦ ¥ ¤ ¤ ¡ § r L L t ¥ C C ¥ ¤ ¦ N ¥ ¤ ¢ L ¤ ¤ ¡ ¥ ¥ M ¦ N ¥ ¤ v £ £ ¦ ¤ ¤ ¥ § ¤ ¦ ¥ M ¥ ¦ A ¦ N r ¢ § ¤ ¥ ¦ ¥ § ¦ ¥ § r L L t ¥ N § § ¥ ¢ ¤ r L L ¦ ¥ § L ¤ ¦ ¥ ¢ § ¥ § ¤ § ¤ ¡ ¦ ¡ L ¢ A L L ¤ ¢ W ¢ A ¥ § ¤ t ¦ ¡ § u [ ¡ ¥ £ ¦ M § A § ¡ A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § ¢ L § C C £ ¦ ¥ § ¥ ¤ § ¢ · ¥ £ £ ¦ ¤ ¤ B A ¦ O A ¥ L u ¥ M ¥ L £ N ¥ ¤ ¤ ¡ ¥ O N ¤ O ¢ ¦ P § ¡ L N £ ¦ M ¥ ¤ ¡ ¥ K ¢ £ £ ¥ ¢ ¦ ¢ ¥ A ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¤ ¥ ¢ A ¢ L ¤ ¢ ¤ ¥ ¤ ¡ ¥ r ¥ ¦ ¦ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¦ ¢ ¤ A ¤ ¡ § ¢ ¦ ¥ ¢ A ¤ ¡ ¥ t ¦ ¡ v ¤ ¡ ¦ ¡ ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¥ C C C A N ¦ ¥ § § ¤ ¢ ¢ t L ¥ r ¢ § ¤ ¥ N ¢ ¢ ¥ N ¥ ¤ ¤ ¥ ¡ L ¥ § v t ¦ ¥ ¢ ¤ v t B ¢ ¤ ¤ ¦ ¢ ¤ ¥ r t § ¥ § § ¥ § ¢ C C C ¤ ¡ ¥ ¥ L M ¥ ¦ B A ¢ ¥ ¥ ¤ ¦ ¢ L § ¥ ¥ ¥ ¦ B ¥ ¤ r ¦ P § £ £ L B ¢ A A ¦ ¢ t L ¥ ¢ L r ¢ ¦ t ¡ ¥ ¢ ¤ ¤ § ¤ ¦ ¥ § v C C £ t L § ¥ ¤ ¦ ¦ ¢ § ¢ ¤ § ¢ L ¢ L ¦ ¥ § ¥ ¤ § r ¤ ¡ ¤ ¡ ¥ £ £ ¥ ¦ s ¥ ¥ ¢ L L ¥ B ¢ ¦ ¥ ¢ u C ¬ ; 8 " > ! 5 1 " # " # I " H " * " O N ¤ O ¢ ¦ P § ¤ ¡ ¥ L ¢ ¦ ¥ § ¤ r ¢ § ¤ ¥ N ¢ ¢ ¥ N ¥ ¤ § ¤ ¥ ¦ ¤ ¡ s ¢ ¡ ¢ § ¢ ¦ ¤ ¢ L ¦ L ¥ ¤ £ L ¢ B K C C ¢ § £ ¢ ¦ ¤ A ¢ r ¥ ¦ ¥ ¤ r ¦ P A r ¢ § ¤ ¥ A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § v N ¢ ¢ ¤ ¡ ¥ ¢ ¦ ¥ ¢ § r ¢ § ¤ ¥ u ¦ ¥ ¦ ¤ N ¥ ¥ ¤ ¤ ¡ ¥ ¢ ¦ ¥ ¢ § C C © s L ¢ ¢ £ £ ¦ ¤ N ¥ ¤ ¤ ¢ ¦ ¥ ¤ § ¢ N ¢ ¢ ¥ r ¢ § ¤ ¥ ¤ ¡ ¥ N § ¤ § § ¤ ¢ ¢ t L ¥ r ¢ B v ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¤ ¥ N § ¤ £ ¦ M ¥ K C C ¤ ¡ ¥ ¥ W ¤ ¥ ¥ ¦ ¢ ¤ A r ¢ § ¤ ¥ § ¥ ¦ M ¥ § u C [ ¢ N N ¢ ¤ ¥ N ¦ ¥ ¥ A A ¥ ¤ ¢ § § ¤ ¢ ¢ t L ¥ r ¢ § ¤ ¥ £ ¦ ¥ § § A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § v § N ¥ A ¤ ¡ ¥ ¥ W § ¤ A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § ' C C § ¤ ¥ N § ¤ t ¥ ¦ ¥ N M ¥ ¢ ¥ W § ¤ § ¥ § £ ¢ ¥ § ¥ ¤ ¢ N N ¢ ¤ ¥ ¥ r A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § u ¥ ¦ ¢ § ¢ ¤ C X C A ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¤ ¥ r L L ¥ ¢ t L ¥ ¤ ¡ ¥ L ¢ ¤ t ¥ § ¥ N ¦ ¥ ¥ A A ¥ ¤ L B ¢ ¤ ¢ P ¥ ¢ M ¢ ¤ ¢ ¥ A £ £ ¦ ¤ ¤ ¥ § ¤ N £ ¦ M ¥ C ¤ ¡ ¥ · ¢ L ¤ B A ¥ M ¥ L £ N ¥ ¤ ¢ ¤ § ¥ M ¦ § u ¤ § ¢ ¤ £ ¢ ¤ ¥ ¤ ¡ ¢ ¤ ¥ r A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § § ¤ ¥ r L t ¥ ¥ M ¥ L £ ¥ ¤ r £ ¡ ¢ § ¥ § u [ ¡ ¥ A ¦ § ¤ £ ¡ ¢ § ¥ r L © ¥ M ¥ L £ A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § ¢ ¦ ¤ ¡ ¥ ¥ W § ¤ O ¥ ¦ B A ¦ N Z ¢ § ¤ ¥ ° O A Z ± A ¢ L ¤ B v £ ¦ N ¢ ¦ L B ¢ ¤ ¤ ¡ ¥ ¦ ¤ ¡ ¥ ¦ ¢ C C § ¤ ¡ ¥ ¦ ¥ § A ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¤ ¥ ° § ¥ ¥ \ ¦ ¥ u s ¢ B ¤ A ¤ ¡ ¥ ¦ ¦ ¥ ¤ § ¥ § ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¤ ¥ ± u ¤ § ¢ ¤ £ ¢ ¤ ¥ ¤ ¡ ¢ ¤ C ¨ 9 w w © ¤ ¡ ¥ O A Z A ¢ L ¤ B r L ¤ ¥ ¤ t ¥ § ¥ ¤ L ¤ ¦ ¥ ¢ ¡ ¥ § ¤ ¡ ¥ ¥ A ¤ § § ¥ A L L A ¥ ¢ ¦ © ¯ © ¯ u ¥ r A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § ¤ ¡ ¥ A ¦ § ¤ £ ¡ ¢ § ¥ r L t ¥ ¥ § ¥ § ¢ § ¤ ¤ N £ ¦ N § ¥ ¤ ¡ ¥ £ ¥ ¦ ¢ ¤ A ¤ ¡ ¥ O A Z ¢ ¤ C § ¤ ¡ ¥ ¦ ¥ A ¦ ¥ L P ¥ L B ¤ ¡ ¢ ¤ ¤ ¡ ¥ L ¢ ¤ A ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¤ ¥ ¥ ¤ ¦ ¢ ¥ v § ¤ ¡ ¥ ¦ r ¥ ¡ t ¦ ¥ v N ¢ § ¤ ¥ ¢ ¥ § § ¦ ¢ ¢ C C L P ¦ ¢ r L t ¥ ¦ ¥ ¤ ¢ ¥ ¢ ¤ L ¥ ¢ § ¤ ¢ § N L ¢ ¦ A ¦ N ¤ ¤ ¡ ¥ ¥ W § ¤ u [ ¡ ¥ ¥ N N § § A ¤ ¡ ¥ O A Z C C r L ¤ ¡ ¥ £ ¦ ¥ § ¥ ¤ ¢ £ £ ¦ ¤ ¤ B A ¦ ¢ § ¥ £ ¡ ¢ § ¥ A r ¢ § ¤ ¥ ¦ ¥ L ¢ ¤ ¥ ¥ M ¥ L £ N ¥ ¤ ¢ ¤ ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¤ ¥ u [ ¡ ¥ ¥ M ¥ L £ N ¥ ¤ A ¢ B ¥ r A ¢ L ¤ ¥ § § ¤ ¥ r L ¦ ¥ · ¦ ¥ £ L ¢ £ ¥ ¦ N § § ¢ ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¡ ¥ N ¥ r L / C t ¥ ¢ § § ¥ § § ¥ ¢ ¢ § ¤ L ¢ L v s ¢ ¢ ¤ ¢ L £ L ¢ £ L ¥ § u ¥ M ¥ L £ N ¥ ¤ A ¤ ¡ ¥ ¥ W £ ¥ ¤ ¥ ¤ B £ ¥ C C ¢ § ¢ L ¥ r L ¢ L § ¥ ¥ ¤ t ¥ § t ¥ ¤ ¤ ¢ O M ¦ N ¥ ¤ ¢ L N £ ¢ ¤ § § ¥ § § N ¥ ¤ ° O ± u [ ¡ ¥ ¢ £ £ ¦ £ ¦ ¢ ¤ ¥ © V © V § ¦ ¥ ¥ ¢ § £ £ ¦ ¥ § § A ¦ ¤ ¡ ¥ ¥ r ¥ M ¥ L £ N ¥ ¤ r L L ¥ ¥ ¤ t ¥ ¥ ¦ ¤ ¢ P ¥ ¢ M ¢ ¥ A ¤ ¡ ¥ C C § t N § § A ¢ £ L ¢ ¢ £ £ L ¢ ¤ u ¥ ¤ ¤ ¡ ¥ § ¤ ¥ § £ ¦ W N ¤ B ¤ ¤ ¡ ¥ s ¥ ¥ ¢ L L ¥ B £ ¥ ¢ L ¦ ¤ ¥ ¤ C ; D K ¦ ¥ ¢ ° ± ¢ ¢ N § ¢ ¦ § ¤ ¥ v ¢ ¢ § § ¥ § § N ¥ ¤ A ¤ ¡ ¥ L P ¥ L B N £ ¢ ¤ § § ¢ L § ¦ ¥ · ¦ ¥ u \ ¦ ¤ ¡ ¥ ¦ N ¦ ¥ v V D K V X ¥ M ¦ N ¥ ¤ ¢ L £ ¥ ¦ N ¤ § A ¦ ¤ ¡ ¥ £ ¥ ¦ ¢ ¤ A ¤ ¡ ¥ A ¢ L ¤ B r L ¥ ¥ ¤ t ¥ t ¤ ¢ ¥ A ¦ N ¤ ¡ ¥ O M ¦ N ¥ ¤ ¥ B u V C Draft Edmonton EcoPark Planning Brief SPD Enfield Council 7 1 Introduction Supplying low carbon decentralised energy 1.3.5 The principal requirement for the future development of the EcoPark is to treat waste in the most sustainable way possible; however the treatment of waste also presents a significant opportunity to generate additional community benefits through the provision of heat.

  • NLWA Annual Report 2020/21
    Annual Report 2020-21 1. Background 1.1 The Annual Report for the Authority is produced each year for the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in June. The report uses waste tonnage data which is still subject to final validation by the national waste data system, WasteDataFlow, so may be subject to further minor changes. Because this data validation is not completed until September each year the Authority usually also produces its annual Waste Strategy Monitoring Report, which includes the validated numbers, in December each year. 1.2 NLWA’s largest ever project – the North London Heat and Power Project, (NLHPP) continued as a key focus throughout the year. The NLHPP is the Authority’s project to replace the existing energy-from-waste facility at the Edmonton EcoPark with a new energy-recovery-facility (ERF) and to provide associated new assets which support recycling. Other recycling and waste prevention activities to manage and reduce the volume of residual waste are set out in the Residual Waste Reduction Plan 2020-2022 and were also implemented during the year. The remaining activities to deliver the 2004-2020 North London Joint Waste Strategy were also delivered. All of the targets within the joint waste strategy have now been achieved, with the exception of reaching a recycling rate of 50%. NORTH LONDON WASTE AUTHORITY / ANNUAL REPORT 2020-2021 2 2.

  • 2020-05-26 XR Rebuttal of NLWA Claims
    STATEMENT 26 MAY 2020 of Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Media contact: +44 7710 269195 Hackney, Haringey, Islington [email protected] & Waltham Forest, together with Extinction Rebellion London TIME TO TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT incineration The North London Waste Authority (NLWA) has responded to calls for a pause and review of its North London Heat and Power Project (NLHPP)—which includes plans to construct a new incinerator in Edmonton— with statements that include some questionable claims. These statements appear in a letter signed by NLWA chair Cllr Clyde Loakes and dated 21 April 2020, and in a Hackney Citizen article of 11 March 2020, which quotes Hackney Cllr Jon Burke.1 They reveal that the NLWA still is not taking recycling or climate breakdown seriously. In this document, Extinction Rebellion (XR) corrects the record with the intention of convincing North London councillors to pause and review the NLHPP so that the seven boroughs that constitute the NLWA may be free to pursue more sustainable waste management options and help London meet its circular economy policy objectives. The current incinerator is operational until 2027, so there is time for a rethink, as long as procurement and preparatory works are put on hold. This rebuttal is meant as a complement to a letter that XR sent to all North London councillors on 11 March 2020. That letter provides a thoroughly sourced rundown of the environmental, financial, and governance problems associated with the NLHPP, as well as details on proven alternatives to incineration. It is available at: https://stop-edmonton-incinerator.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/2020-03-11-XR-incinerator-letter.pdf.

  • Waste Recycling System in Selected Places Research Office Legislative Council Secretariat
    Information Note Waste recycling system Research Office in selected places Legislative Council Secretariat IN12/16-17 1. Introduction 1.1 Over the past decade or so, the Hong Kong Government has launched a number of initiatives to promote waste recovery, including (a) setting up the EcoPark in Tuen Mun in 2007; (b) establishing the Recycling Fund valued at HK$1 billion to support waste recyclers in 2015; (c) introducing legislations to implement producer responsibility for few waste streams beginning with glass bottles and electronic/electrical products; and (d) improving voluntary waste separation and collection facilities which are accessible to residence of some 80% local households. Yet the recovery rate of municipal solid waste still fell noticeably from 48% in 2011 to 35% in 2015. To a certain extent, the lacklustre recycling performance could be attributable to the sluggish global market for recycled products in recent years. Yet there are also concerns that the local recycling industry did not receive enough support to remain self-sufficient and financially sustainable, compared to their overseas counterparts which are supported by well-established extended producer responsibility systems ("EPRS") covering most kinds of waste.1 As such, the local recycling industry remained relatively small in size, with about 500 establishments directly employing 4 000 people in 2013.2 1.2 At the request made by the Subcommittee on Refuse Collection and Resource Recovery in October 2016 and as a follow-up to the earlier note entitled "Separation and collection of household waste in selected places" 1 In those places with good practice of EPRS, producers are held responsible for the environmental impacts of their products from the design to end-of-life phase.

  • Innovation in Eco-Industrial Parks
    Paper submitted to: R&D Management Conference 2018 “R&Designing Innovation: Transformational Challenges for Organizations and Society” June, 30th -July, 4th, 2018, Milan, Italy Innovation in eco-industrial parks: a comparative review of case studies Willerson Lucas Campos-Silva 1,5, João Amato Neto 2, Mary Fernanda Sousa Melo 3,5 and Rodrigo Trotta Yaryd 4 Abstract: The innovation is a factor that influences the formation and development of industrial symbiosis complexes, through improvements in material utilization and reuse technologies, and the adjustment of industrial production structures. In the Circular Economy context, the innovation could be an effective strategy to improve the eco-efficiency. Based on the eco-industrial parks potential to support sustainable development and to be a platform of innovation in environmental management, this research aims to analyze the international scientific production of the case studies in eco-industrial parks and understand the how innovation is undertaken. It was developed a systematic review of literature. Data analysis was done in two stages: descriptive and exploratory. The co-word network maps were analysed through the VOSviewer software. The number of citations has grown in recent years. Most of the authors are from China, followed by the USA, and the main journal is Journal of Cleaner Production. Most of the EIPs are in China and more widely in Asia. Through the co-word analysis, we studied the conceptual structure of the research field. This research presented an overview that can guide academics and managers interested in EIP and innovation in the context of the parks. 1. Introduction Long-term partnerships are essential so that organizations can make the transition towards sustainability, being necessary to have a systemic view to achieve sustainability (Geng et al.

It therefore represents one of the greatest opportunities for cities to tackle climate change locally, and contribute to ambitious national government targets at the Paris COP21 and beyond. Cities are the drivers of development, growth and investment. But rising consumption and production in cities is causing more than 70 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, and cities are vulnerable to climate impacts, such as sea level rise, heat waves and drought. If cities continue to develop according to the prevailing 20th century model, it will not be possible to prevent severe climate change. Fortunately, today, a number of leading mayors are forging a path to low carbon development and are already achieving economic growth by investing in sustainable city climate solutions.

It is situated in north central London. Haringey is considered to be an outer London borough. However, its proximity and public transport access to Central London and its socio-economic make-up mean that it shares many characteristics with inner London boroughs. Haringey is strategically located in the London-Stansted- Cambridge-Peterborough Growth Area, and is therefore a focus for new housing growth by central government and the Greater London Authority. With strong links to the City, West End, the Upper Lee Valley and Stansted Airport the borough is very well placed as a business location and as a base for out-commuting. 1.2 Haringey is currently preparing its Local Development Framework Core Strategy – A New Plan for Haringey. This will guide growth in the Borough for the London Plan period to 2016 and beyond to 2026. Haringey has a target of 6,800 new homes for the period between 2006 and 2016/17.
