en.Wedoany.com Report, On March 25, China Energy Engineering Group East China Electric Power Design Institute (ECEPDI) and British company BHEG formally signed the EPC contract for the 30MW waste-to-energy project in Doncaster, UK (hereinafter referred to as the "Doncaster Project") in London. This signing marks a significant breakthrough for ECEPDI in the UK's energy and environmental protection market, laying a solid foundation for the company to deepen its presence in the high-end energy market of Western Europe and expand its waste-to-energy business sector.
The Doncaster Project is located in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, UK. It plans to construct an energy recovery plant capable of processing approximately 900 tons of municipal solid waste per day, with an annual processing capacity of about 300,000 tons and a net installed capacity of approximately 30 megawatts. The project will employ mature and advanced waste incineration power generation technology. Upon completion, it will effectively enhance the local solid waste treatment capacity, reduce reliance on landfills, contribute to the region's green and low-carbon transition, and provide stable clean energy support for the UK's power system.
Zhou Yi, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of ECEPDI, led a team to attend the signing ceremony and held in-depth discussions with the management teams of BHEG and the resource provider, Low Carbon. At the signing ceremony, Zhou Yi stated that the UK, as one of the important markets for global energy transition, possesses a high degree of maturity in environmental standards, technological systems, and business models. The Doncaster Project is a significant landmark project for ECEPDI in the UK. The company will leverage its extensive engineering experience and comprehensive EPC capabilities in the waste-to-energy field, collaborate with high-quality local partners, advance project implementation to high standards, and create a model project for China-UK green energy cooperation. Furthermore, ECEPDI will adhere to the concept of sustainable development, strictly comply with relevant UK laws, regulations, and environmental requirements, and promote the safe, efficient, and compliant implementation of the project.
BHEG and Low Carbon spoke highly of ECEPDI's technical strength and international engineering experience in the energy and environmental protection sector, stating that the Doncaster Project has a solid market foundation and promising development prospects. Both parties will take this project as an opportunity to further deepen cooperation in the UK and European energy infrastructure sectors, jointly promote the development of green and low-carbon projects, and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.
During the project promotion phase, the ECEPDI team actively engaged with Chinese commercial institutions in the UK, energy companies, and relevant UK government departments to gain a deep understanding of the local policy environment and market mechanisms, providing strong support for the project's compliant advancement and investment decisions. Relevant UK institutions welcomed Chinese participation in the construction of waste-to-energy projects and pledged to provide necessary support and assistance for the project's progress.
