Shapoorji Pallonji group company, Sterling and Wilson Solar Ltd has secured its first order worth about Rs 1,500 crore for its waste-to-energy business from an undisclosed leading developer of energy assets in the UK and Europe.
The move is in line with the company’s last month announcement for the expansion of its renewable energy offerings to include hybrid energy, energy storage and waste-to-energy solutions.
Further, the facility will process 23.2 tonnes of non-recyclable solid municipal waste per hour, diverting over 185,600 tonnes of waste each year.
Also, it would generate around 19.6 MW of energy, enough to power over 30,000 homes, and would also provide heat that can be used by nearby businesses, the company, which is one of the world’s leading solar EPC and O&M solutions providers, said in a statement.
Commenting on winning the order, Amit Jain, Global CEO of Sterling and Wilson Solar Group, said, “we are delighted to have bagged our first order in the waste-to-energy segment, which we recently forayed into. This is a double delight since it is also our first order in the European market, further cementing our position as the most trusted partner in the EPC segment. Since waste-to-energy projects have a larger execution period, through such orders, the company will be able to manage a consistent revenue stream year-on-year.”
“This is an important project for the region, in terms of sustainability and renewable power generation. With over two billion tonnes of municipal waste produced globally each year, the treatment of non-recyclable trash that otherwise emits methane from landfills will help reduce greenhouse gases in the atmosphere,” he added.
The company’s scope of work for this project includes design, engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning and testing of the facility, Boiler (fuel - Refused Derived Fuel), 19 MWe steam turbine generator and condensor, pollution control equipment, water treatment plant, associated balance of plant and subsequent O&M.
Meanwhile, the construction of the plant is expected to begin in Q3 FY22 and will likely be commissioned in three years.
