EQTEC plc is a waste-to-energy technology company focused on advanced gasification. It designs, licenses, and integrates proprietary systems that convert refuse‑derived fuel (RDF), biomass, and other residual non‑recyclable feedstocks into synthesis gas for use in electricity generation, combined heat and power (CHP), and industrial energy applications. EQTEC operates as a technology provider and project developer, working with engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) partners and plant operators.
Headquartered in Ireland and listed on the London Stock Exchange’s AIM market, the company supports projects primarily in the UK and continental Europe. Its solutions target diversion of waste from landfill and recovery of energy and materials, contributing to lower‑carbon local energy and industrial systems.
Challenging market conditions and setbacks make the Billingham project unfeasible. Discussions continue on recovering investments. Focus shifts to broader strategic opportunities.
A 25 MWe waste-to-energy plant in Billingham, UK, will use refuse-derived fuel. Construction starts in early 2022, operational by end of 2023. Kibo holds 54.54% equity, EQTEC 45.46%.
