ACCIONA
North London Energy Recovery Facility
Location: Edmonton, London
Value: £683m
DB3 have been appointed by Acciona to provide architectural design and landscape architecture for a new £683m world class Energy Recovery Facility (ERF) for North London Waste Authority (NLWA). DB3, supported by Gillespies, are undertaking RIBA Stages 2-6 at the Edmonton EcoPark site, which will be the UK’s greenest ERF.
The scheme forms part of a £1.2bn investment known as the North London Heat and Power Project, which will serve seven North London boroughs. With the concept design led by international architecture practice Grimshaw, DB3 are leading the delivery of the facility to completion.
The facility will divert up to 700,000 tonnes of waste from landfill every year. It will be treated in order to generate electricity for up to 127,000 homes as well as generate heating and hot water for one of the UK’s largest district heat networks that will support 50,000 homes and businesses.
The new ERF will play a major part in North London Waste Authority’s plan to help North London reach Net Zero.
Construction commenced in 2022 with the intention for the ERF to be operational by 2026.
MCFADDEN BUILDING AND CIVIL ENGINEERING LIMITED
Scunthorpe Energy Recovery Centre
Location: Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire
DB3 have been procured by McFadden Building and Civil Engineering Limited to deliver the design for a new state-of-the-art 49.9MW Energy Recovery Centre in North Lincolnshire. The scheme, which also includes a Materials Recovery Facility (MRF), an Incinerator Bottom Ash (IBA) facility and options for on-site hydrogen production, will process up to 500,000 tonnes of waste each year and will generate enough sustainable electricity for over 60,000 homes.
The proposal allows for waste to be delivered to the site by either road or rail containers. Waste will be pre-sorted in the MRF where automated technologies will remove plastics, papers and
cardboard as well as ferrous and non-ferrous metals all of which will be sent onwards for recycling. Once all the recyclables have been extracted the remaining waste will be treated with the heat generated from the combustion process used to create steam to power a turbine and excess steam being exported to local industries or businesses via a heat network.
The IBA, which is a non-hazardous ash from the end of the process, contains recyclable materials and will be treated in the IBA facility prior to being recycled into aggregate for the construction industry.
DB3 Energy & Waste
Nantycaws Resource Recycling Facility (RRF)
Location: Nantycaws, Camarthenshire
Value: £4m
In 2021, CWM Environmental faced a significant challenge when a devastating fire engulfed their Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) at Nantycaws. The fire, caused by a discarded lithium-ion battery, completely destroyed the facility. However, from this unfortunate event emerged an opportunity to rebuild and innovate. Our team are delivering Architectural and M&E Services to develop the new Nantycaws Resource Recycling Facility (RRF), a state of the art complex designed to handle all of Carmarthenshire’s household recycling. This new facility not only replaces the old MRF but also represents a significant upgrade, both in terms of technology and capacity.
The new Nantycaws RRF is designed to process up to 80,000 tons of recyclable materials across South West Wales. With around 20,000 tonnes coming from co–mingled DMR (Dry Mixed Recycling) from households across Carmarthenshire, the rest will be from the commercial sector and collected as separated streams at the curbside. Unlike the old MRF, the RRF is designed to handle both a comingled stream from households and segregated streams from businesses to provide a valuable service to the local community after the introduction of Workplace Recycling Laws in April 2024. The RRF is designed to segregate polymers and fiber material if required, which will enhance the service even further.
The facility will feature cutting-edge technologies such as robotics, eddy current separators, ballistic operators, Near-Infrared (NIR) detection, and artificial intelligence (AI) for data collection and quality monitoring. These innovations will ensure
efficient sorting and higher quality recycled materials.
The facility is designed to significantly increase recycling efficiency. By utilising advanced sorting technologies and promoting a circular economy, the RRF aims to make Carmarthenshire a leader in sustainable resource management in Wales.
In addition to the technological upgrades, the Nantycaws RRF features a completely redesigned road layout and an automated weighbridge. These infrastructure improvements are designed to streamline the process of receiving and sorting materials, reducing waiting times and increasing overall efficiency. The new road access makes it easier for collection vehicles to deliver recyclables, ensuring that materials are processed quickly and effectively.
One of the new facility’s most exciting aspects is its potential to create skilled jobs in the region. These jobs will not only contribute to the economic wellbeing of the region but will also offer career opportunities in the growing field of environmental management.
Additionally, the facility will welcome local schools and businesses, offering them a firsthand look at the cutting-edge technologies and processes at work in the facility.
XLINKS
Morocco-UK Power Project
Location: Devon
Value: £24bn
The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project is a new electricity generation facility. The proposal is based on renewable energy creation, powered by solar and wind energy combined with a battery storage facility. Located in Morocco’s renewable energy rich region of Guelmim Oued Noun, the facility will be connected exclusively to Great Britain via 4,000km (2485 miles) HVDC sub-sea cables.
This first of a kind project will generate 11.5GW of zero carbon electricity to deliver 3.6GW of reliable energy for an average of 19+ hours a day. This is enough to provide low cost, clean power to the equivalent of over 7 million British homes and once complete, the project will be capable of supplying 8 percent of Great Britain’s electricity needs.
Alongside the consistent output from its solar panels and wind turbines, an onsite 22.5GWh/5GW battery facility will provide sufficient storage to reliably deliver a near constant source of clean energy for Britain, designed to complement the renewable energy already generated across the UK.
Agreement has been reached with National Grid for two 1.8GW voltage source convertor stations for connections in Devon.
DB3 are providing Architectural and Principal Designer Services to XLinks, for Option B, a new 3.6GW converter station located next to the Alverdiscott national substation in Devon. This project follows works concluded to Stage 3 for an Option A of this project at a different site close by, in Gammaton Moor.
Throughout the design development, we have been considerate of the location, landscape and constraints of the Devon countryside. The requirements blend the proposals for the architectural landscape and the control access building, integrating the facility into the landscape.
We will be supporting XLinks and the wider design team throughout the project duration, until completion in 2030.
SUEZ
Tees Valley Energy Recovery Centre
Location: Redcar and Cleveland
Value: £300m
DB3 are supporting Suez’s bid for a new ERC to treat waste from Durham County Council, Newcastle City Council, Middlesbrough and the boroughs of Darlington, Hartlepool, Redcar and Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees. The annual capacity is expected to be 450,000 tonnes which will generate electricity for more than 32,000 homes.
The seven councils across the North East joined forces in plans for a 40-year Energy from Waste (EfW) project potentially worth £2.1 billion.
A 25-acre brownfield site in Redcar and Cleveland has been identified for the Tees Valley facility. The local authorities hope for the facility to be up and running by 1 April 2026, when it would create 40 permanent positions.
DB3 has provided designs for the project, which features an IBA facility and incorporates carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology.
This site is destined to become the landmark building in this area.
NATIONAL GAS
Emergency Equipment Store &
Admin Building
Location: Ambergate, Derbyshire
Our architecture and building services teams have delivered significant upgrades at National Gas Ambergate, enhancing both operational efficiency and sustainability.
The project included the construction of a new Emergency Equipment and Materials Store, designed to improve operational capabilities. This facility is fully equipped with an internal crane and features an external wilding area.
The existing 1970s admin building has been completely transformed. The outdated twostorey concrete framed structure now features a striking new exterior, a modern reception area, and upgraded office spaces. The refurbishment also includes improved meeting rooms, breakout spaces, and boardroom, creating a more functional and welcoming workspace.
National Gas’ Ambergate site is a key operational hub, playing a vital role in providing critical maintenance services that ensure the reliability and security of the national energy network. This significant investment reflects a broader commitment to supporting the government’s net zero ambitions and the transition toward a hydrogen powered future.
As part of this vision, the Ambergate site is actively contributing to the development of a core hydrogen network across the UK. This initiative is essential for achieving net zero goals while also strengthening energy security and fostering green job opportunities.
WESTERN POWER DISTRIBUTION
New Build Depots
Location: UK-wide
DB3 have acted as Architect for a variety of projects, including new build and conversion schemes. DB3 delivered a programme of rapid conversion works following Western Power Distributions acquisition of Central Networks Ltd (CN) from EON.
A programme of new depots followed, including upgrading existing sites and establishing new sites in 16 locations. The units varied in size to accommodate 20 to 106 workstations and include office space, meeting rooms, a conference room, mess, locker and shower rooms, plus a range of workshops, smaller specialist stores and a larger general storage area.
At Northampton we tackled a challenging site with tight external space. Our solution included doubling the size of the office within the 48,000ft² facilities by forming the specialist stores out of
load-bearing blockwork and using a beam and block floor with topping to assist with acoustic performance.
The depots were in varying states when purchased. Derby was a recently completed unit (although with only 25% of the required first floor office space); Northampton had to be stripped back to the frame and re-roofed and re-clad, with all new windows and doors.
We did extensive work with the supply chain prior to the contract awards to ensure consistency of look and feel across the portfolio. Having completed the initial phase of six depots, further sites have been delivered on an ongoing basis.
The depot scheme at Spilsby achieved a BREEAM Outstanding rating of 100.5%, the highest ever achieved.
DEVON COUNTY COUNCIL Crowndale HWRC
Location: Tavistock, Devon
We are acting as the Architect and M&E provider for a new reuse centre, which forms part of a state of the art Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) in Tavistock. The previous HWRC on Crowndale Road had become outdated, highly congested, and no longer met the growing demands of the community.
The new facility, situated on a regenerated brownfield site, is designed to improve efficiency, accessibility, and sustainability. A key feature of this development is the reuse centre, which plays a crucial role in diverting items from landfill by
enabling their repair, repurposing, or resale. This initiative not only reduces waste but also supports the circular economy, encouraging a more sustainable approach to resource management. By integrating modern design with sustainable infrastructure, such a PV panels and rain water harvesting, the project aims to provide a long term solution for waste management while fostering environmental responsibility within the local community.
New Inn Waste Transfer Station
Location: Torfaen
Value: £4m+
DB3 were procured by Kier Construction to provide the full multi-disciplinary lead for a new Waste Transfer Station in the New Inn area of South Wales. The scheme included a new £4m facility that will allow for the bulking and baling on site of various waste streams prior to recycling. The waste streams will be collected from kerbside and delivered using kerb-sort vehicles and will include glass, plastics, green waste, food waste, paper & cardboard, and Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).
DB3’s scope included the following disciplines:
Lead Designer
Planning and permitting
Architecture
Civil and structural engineering
Building services engineering
Principal Designer
The project posed challenges such as a limited site, contamination, and Sustainable Drainage and SAB compliance. The scheme added complexity due to the need to relocate existing technologies, such as waste sorting equipment and weighbridges.
DB3 inherited WRAP’s concept layout and partnered with local authorities and WRAP to find a solution. The team used their knowledge to enhance the layout and present two options for the client. Hard landscaping was minimised wherever possible to maximise areas of permeable paving. The scheme is at RIBA Stage 2.
Wind Farm Control Buildings
Location: Scotland, Wales & N. Ireland
DB3 became involved with winds farms across Scotland and more recently in Wales and Northern Ireland. We were appointed by Tony Gee & Partners to undertake the Section Six for Scotland and Part L for Wales compliance checks. This involved us completing thermal modelling to review the buildings’ compliance with the appropriate regulations. As the buildings take 100% of their energy from the wind turbines they are considered carbon neutral.
