Energy from Waste Plant
A small amount of electricity is currently generated from the
Bellozane incinerator and is purchased by Jersey Electricity.
Once the new Incinerator/Energy from Waste plant is commissioned,
Jersey Electricity expects to purchase up to 5% of the Island's
power requirements from the plant. This additional on-island
generation will help to reduce the Island's reliance on imported
energy.
