"UKWIN and 38 other environmental groups have written to Defra minister Emma Hardy calling for a moratorium on new waste incineration capacity, confirmation that incineration will enter the UK ETS from 2028 without loopholes, and publication of the Circular Economy Growth Plan."

"The letter, dated 5 August 2026 and signed by UKWIN coordinator Shlomo Dowen, states that England has 53 operational incinerators with a combined capacity of 15.8 million tonnes a year, with a further 10 plants under construction adding 4.6 million tonnes. UKWIN modelling in the letter concludes that, even if no new incinerator is built, English incineration overcapacity would exceed 7.6 million tonnes by 2042 if residual waste and recycling targets are met."

"The signatories also point to the effect of long-term contracts on collection services, noting that of the 31 local authorities granted extensions to the mandatory separate food waste collection requirement, 26 cited barriers linked to waste incineration contracts. The letter asks Defra to legislate to remove packaging from uncut fresh fruit and vegetables, to consult on further measures to meet the statutory target to halve residual waste by 2042, and to meet the signatories to discuss the proposals."

"Northern Ireland can no longer send mixed municipal waste, or the refuse-derived fuel made from it, for recovery in third countries beyond the European Economic Area. Great Britain, running its own regime, faces no such limit. The rules changed again this week, without an inquiry at Stormont."
