London, England – Wheelabrator Technologies UK has announced to join with AE&E Inova in providing operations and maintenance support at the Riverside EfW facility for Cory Environmental. Wheelabrator Technologies and AE&E Inova will provide management, operational and technical support services for a period of five years to help Cory Environmental to maximise plant performance.

Malcolm Ward, CEO of Cory Environmental commented: “Cory Environmental is committed to achieving world-class performance standards at our new Riverside facility. With Wheelabrator Technologies and AE&E Inova, we have assembled a team representing the best in the industry worldwide."

In 2002, Cory Environmental was awarded a 30+ year contract by the Western Riverside Waste Authority to build an EfW facility designed to process up to 670,000 tonnes of municipal and commercial waste per year from that Authority and other London boroughs. Upon start up in 2011, this facility will be the UK’s largest EfW plant. The Riverside EfW facility will be an important strategic river-served waste management facility for London, helping the city to manage its waste, keeping over 100,000 HGVs off the capital’s congested roads each year and making a real contribution to London’s ability to meet its landfill diversion targets.

Wheelabrator Technologies UK Operations Vice President Gary Aguinaga commented: “We are delighted to be involved in the operation of one of the U.K.’s leading EfW facilities. The depth of our 35-year EfW plant operating experience in the U.S. and our long-term technology partnership with AE&E Inova gives us an excellent foundation to support Cory Environmental in delivering best practice and operational excellence to the Riverside project.”
