Description

The project is being developed and currently owned by Wheelabrator Technologies.

The project is expected to generate 344GWh electricity and supply enough clean energy to power 146,180 households. The project is expected to offset 163,000t of carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) a year.

The process of combustion will be adopted in this combined heat and power (CHP) project to release the stored energy from the feed. Industrial waste and municipal solid waste will be used as a feedstock to power the project.

Development status

The project construction is expected to commence from 2016. Subsequent to that it will enter into commercial operation by July 2020.

Contractors involved

Constructions Industrielles de la Mediterranee is expected to render engineering procurement construction services for the biopower project.

MARTIN is likely to be the supplier of the steam boiler for the project. The boiler that will get installed at the site is expected to have a capacity of 40.8TPH.

Wheelabrator Technologies is expected to perform operations and maintenance for the project.
