The project will be developed on about 200,000 square meters of coastal site and can accommodate up to 1 million tonnes of municipal waste per year with a design capacity expandable up to 4 million tonnes. The facility will be powered by a 300 MW solar photovoltaic plant coupled with a 70 MW energy storage system.
The facility will feature H2-Industries' liquid organic hydrogen carrier technology to convert waste into green energy using solar power.
