<\/strong>Another step for <\/strong>Abu Dhabi\u2019s first waste-to-energy plant:<\/strong> A joint venture (JV) between the Investment Corporation of Dubai\u2019s construction giant Alec Engineering and Contracting<\/a> and construction and services group Butec<\/a> has been tapped to build and design Abu Dhabi\u2019s first waste-to-energy plant<\/a>, according to a statement<\/a>. The Emirates Water and Electricity Company (Ewec) and Tadweer Group<\/a> signed a concession agreement with a Japan-based consortium to develop the project earlier this month.<\/p>\n

What we know: <\/strong>The waste-to-energy plant will sit near the Al-Dhafra landfill and process some 900k tonnes of non-recyclable waste a year for a period of 30 years. The statement did not disclose the investment ticket or a construction timeline.<\/p>\n

Who\u2019s doing what?<\/strong> The Alec Butec<\/a> JV will oversee the engineering, procurement and construction of the facility, as well as manage external works and site infrastructure, alongside Swiss-based cleantech company Hitachi Zosen Innova<\/a> (HZI).<\/p>\n

Background: <\/strong>Butec and Alec formed the JV back in April 2021<\/a>, merging their assets, personnel, and experience to provide cost-effective and environmentally sustainable solutions for major projects in the UAE's utilities, industrial, and environmental sectors.<\/p>\n

The UAE has been on a roll with waste-to-energy projects: <\/strong>UAE-based industrial development company Imdaad established a waste-to-fuel plant at its Farz facility<\/a> in Dubai\u2019s National Industries Park back in December. The plant will have the capacity to convert 300 tons of non-combustible, non-recyclable waste from the 1.2k tons recycled waste at the Farz facility into clean energy which can be stored, transmitted, or used to power the recycling plant or other various industries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
