The Dubai Waste to Energy facility welcomed H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin
Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive
Council.

The successful ignition of the first fire at the Dubai Waste to Energy is a
momentous achievement for all parties: BESIX, Hitachi Zosen Inova, Dubai
Holding, DUBAL, Tech Group and ITOCHU.

When fully operational the facility will process 5,666 tonnes of waste per day
and generate enough electricity to power approximately 135,000 homes in the
region.

The facility's construction adheres to the highest standards of engineering,
efficiency, and environmental sustainability and will be fully operational by
2024.
 
Dubai, UAE - BESIX and Hitachi Zosen Inova (HZI) proudly announce a significant
milestone in the Dubai Waste-to-Energy (DWE) project with the successful
ignition of the first fire at the DWE facility. This achievement represents a
crucial step towards completing and operating the plant, demonstrating the
efficient and safe processing of waste to generate renewable energy.

The DWE facility had the honour of hosting His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin
Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, and Chairman of Dubai
Executive Council, who personally witnessed this pivotal moment. The visit
underscores the project's importance and serves as a testament to Dubai's
commitment to sustainability, innovation, and the pursuit of excellence.

BESIX, chosen for its extensive experience and expertise in complex
infrastructure projects, plays an integral role in the DWE project. They oversee
civil, infrastructure, fire-fighting, and ancillary works. Meanwhile, HZI takes
charge of the process-related work, leveraging their cutting-edge technologies
and expertise to convert municipal solid waste efficiently and safely into clean
energy.

Council. Image courtesy: BESIX


The DWE facility, the world’s largest and most efficient waste-to-energy
facility, aims to reduce landfill dependency and help Dubai achieve its goal of
75% waste diversion by 2025. Currently in its commissioning phase, the DWE
facility processes 1,000 tonnes of waste daily. Energy production on two lines
is set to commence this August. The project aims to be fully operational across
all five lines in Q1 2024.

At its peak, the plant will process 5,666 tonnes of waste daily, equivalent to 2
million tonnes annually. This will generate 220 MW of electricity, supplying
power to roughly 135,000 homes in the region. From the residual ash produced
during combustion, metals will be recovered and recycled for commercial use.

The facility's construction adheres to the highest standards of engineering,
efficiency, and environmental sustainability. Once completed, a joint venture
between HZI and BESIX will provide operation and maintenance services for 35
years under an agreement with Dubai Municipality.

Benoit Vadani, Vice-President, Director Development, BESIX: "We are immensely
honoured to have His Highness witness the successful ignition of the first fire.
