Location
The project is located at Eastern Creek, in the Blacktown City local government area, in Western Sydney, Australia.

Project Description
The Next Generation plans to build and operate a large-scale energy-from-waste facility.
The plant will thermally treat unrecyclable nonputrescible residual waste from Sydney-based recycling facilities, primarily from construction and demolition, and commercial and industrial sources.
The facility will be able to handle up to 552 500 t/y of waste to produce 76 MW of electricity using steam-driven turbines. Up to 68.7 MW could be exported to the national grid and the remaining 7.3 MW will be reserved for operational purposes on site.
The project will include two independent boilers, two flue gas treatment systems, a twin flue emission stack, one turbine, an air-cooled condenser and all other auxiliary equipment.
Other key infrastructure includes a tipping hall, waste bunker, administration building and workshop, as well as underground infrastructure, a substation, detention basins and backup systems. The facility will be the first of its kind in New South Wales.
