Viridor Ltd, a leading UK recycling and energy recovery company has unveiled a proposal for a new multimillion-pound 34 MWe energy recovery facility (ERF) in Scotland, this time south of Larkhall in South Lanarkshire. The proposal is in direct response to the Scottish Government's "zero waste" strategy and the forthcoming ban on the landfilling of food, paper, garden, and any other biodegradable household waste by 2025.
