Consultation description

We want to know what you think about our draft guidance for combustion and energy from waste plants (with a thermal input of 20 MW or more). It is guidance on carrying out cost-benefit assessments of opportunities for combined heat and power or recovery of heat from industrial processes.

Have we specified the right approach to carrying out the cost-benefit assessment, and included the right parameters and values?

This is in line with the requirements of Article 14 (5-8) of the Energy Efficiency Directive which we expect to be implemented by an amendment to the Environmental Permitting Regulations 2010.
