Lostock Sustainable Energy Plant (LSEP) is under construction after being granted planning permission on appeal in 2012. Now LSEP wants to increase the amount of waste handled by more than 20 per cent to 728,000 tonnes per year. It claims the energy-from-waste plant could then generate enough electricity for up to 148,000 homes. But there are fears over the impact on air quality and the local road network after the operator admitted this would mean a ‘higher number of vehicle movements’. The Weaver Vale MP said: The company describes the waste incinerator as a sustainable energy plant and is very keen to stress its green credentials.
