In the United Arab Emirates, Zawya reported that Iraq is planning to invite companies for a project to build a waste-to-energy plant within a post-war scheme to develop its infrastructure and services.
The National Investment Commission (NIC) will oversee the execution of the project, which it considers as a “pioneering plan for electricity production,” according to the report.
“This is a waste recycling and power generation project by way of incineration…it is a pioneering project in Iraq for the production of electricity,” NIC’s Chairman Haidar Makkiah reportedly said.
The executive did not provide further details of the initiative.
