  • 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.

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.

  • Bankside Power Station: Planning, Politics and Pollution
    BANKSIDE POWER STATION: PLANNING, POLITICS AND POLLUTION Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester by Stephen Andrew Murray Centre for Urban History University of Leicester 2014 Bankside Power Station ii Bankside Power Station: Planning, Politics and Pollution Stephen Andrew Murray Abstract Electricity has been a feature of the British urban landscape since the 1890s. Yet there are few accounts of urban electricity undertakings or their generating stations. This history of Bankside power station uses government and company records to analyse the supply, development and use of electricity in the City of London, and the political, economic and social contexts in which the power station was planned, designed and operated. The close-focus adopted reveals issues that are not identified in, or are qualifying or counter-examples to, the existing macro-scale accounts of the wider electricity industry. Contrary to the perceived backwardness of the industry in the inter-war period this study demonstrates that Bankside was part of an efficient and profitable private company which was increasingly subject to bureaucratic centralised control. Significant decision-making processes are examined including post-war urban planning by local and central government and technological decision-making in the electricity industry. The study contributes to the history of technology and the environment through an analysis of the technologies that were proposed or deployed at the post-war power station, including those intended to mitigate its impact, together with an examination of their long-term effectiveness. Bankside made a valuable contribution to electricity supplies in London until the 1973 Middle East oil crisis compromised its economic viability.
