Keppel opens Waste-to-Energy plant for Singaporeans

The new Keppel Seghers WTE Plant has the capacity to treat 800 tonnes of solid waste a day to generate more than 20MW of green energy for Singapore’s energy supply.

Keppel Integrated Engineering Ltd (KIE), the environmental technology and engineering arm of Keppel Corporation Limited, officially opened Singapore’s newest Waste-to-Energy (WTE) plant, the first to be built under the National Environment Agency (NEA)’s Public-Private Partnership (PPP) initiative, a Keppel report said on Wednesday.

The new plant is the first incineration plant in Singapore to showcase WTE technology from a local company, and also one of the most compact WTE plants in the world.

KIE, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Keppel Seghers Engineering Singapore Pte Ltd (Keppel Seghers), designed and built the WTE plant incorporating Keppel Seghers’ combustion grate and flue gas cleaning proprietary technologies, and will operate and maintain the plant for 25 years under a contract awarded by the NEA.

Together with the Senoko WTE Plant, which Keppel Seghers also operates, Keppel will treat close to half of Singapore’s incinerable waste.

Mr Michael Chia, Deputy Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of KIE, said, “Occupying only 1.6 hectares, the Keppel Seghers WTE Plant is designed to effectively support NEA’s aim of building a sustainable quality environment in land-scarce Singapore, incorporating many space-saving and technologically advanced features.”

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
