A renewable energy plant for Greater Manchester

The plant is designed to provide renewable electricity for 125,000 homes. Appointed in 2019 by P.J. Carey Ltd, Claywatt has now handed over the new infrastructure to project partners TATA, Inovyn, and Imerys at the Lostock site.

Once operational, LSEP will safely and cleanly recover energy, diverting 600,000 tonnes of residual waste from landfill. The plant will provide continuous renewable electricity, offering a more reliable energy source than intermittent wind or solar power.
