John Lyall Architects feature in a recent article in New London Architecture Quarterly asking “What can we do with Waste?”
The article documents the discussions made at the NLAs conference Recovering Energy from Waste: New technologies and infrastructure for the capital and includes commentary on the opportunities and constraints in the fast moving sector of energy from waste. The article includes input from all of the speakers at the event:
“London is a huge producer ‘of everything’ and contributes some 20 per cent of theUK’s ‘waste arisings’. ‘That means that the potential fuel sources from energy to waste are bountiful’ ” - James Cleverly, Chairman, London Waste and Recycling Board
‘We’ve got waste; we’ve got to get rid of it. We’re not putting it in landfill; we need somewhere to get rid of it. Where’s the easiest place to put it? Let’s put it here. It’s not very efficient, and we’ve got to move away from that. We’ve got to plan better, make sure that all the opportunities are taken…” Andrew Richmond, Waste Policy and Programmes Manager, GLA
