Developing waste to energy in sustainable waste management – accelerating best practice and world class solutions

Interest in waste to energy, and waste as a resource, as part of a sustainable waste management strategy,  is growing rapidly in many regions globally, but few are as dynamic as the wider Middle East region.

As the organisers of the Energy from Waste London conference, we have a twenty year track record of delivering one of the most important events for waste to energy development in the sector.

At the London event, we regularly bring together over 500 senior level policy makers, industry leaders, financiers and investors, innovators, waste managers, technical experts, engineers, advisors and suppliers, for two days of top level information exchange, uniquely valuable networking, and crucial business development opportunities.

We are now launching Energy from Waste Middle East to serve the rapidly accelerating Middle East and wider market.

Dubai, home of the world’s largest waste to energy plant, is the venue for the Energy from Waste conference, and a site visit to this plant is scheduled for 26th November.  Please note, limited availability.

Bookings are now open; visit the Book Now page to secure the Launch Rate!

Tribe has had the pleasure of acting in an advisory capacity for all three of the successfully procured waste to energy projects in the UAE, with two of them now in operations and the third in construction. Each of the projects were structured using different business models, adapted to the specific requirements of the individual Emirate. Given these project successes, we are seeing a noticeable uptake in interest in waste to energy solutions,  and many countries in the GCC and wider region are actively exploring waste to energy and waste to x solutions…

The Middle East region is striving to modernize their waste management strategies, and Energy from Waste is one of the key cornerstones in the overall strategies. This is demonstrated by the existing plants, plants under construction and plants to be realized in the near future combining the latest developments, high efficiency and stringent emission criteria comparable to the state of the art in the industry. Ramboll is one of the world’s leading engineering consultancies, providing expert technical advice on all aspects of energy from waste, and has been, and is currently, engaged in numerous developments across the region.
