Name and Location
Dublin Waste-to-Energy project, Ireland.

Client
The project is a public–private partnership (PPP) between Dublin City Council, acting on behalf of the four Dublin local authorities (Dublin 4), and Covanta.

Project Description
The project aims to provide a thermal treatment plant to treat municipal waste that cannot be reused or recycled.

Located in Poolbeg, at Dublin port, the plant will generate energy from up to 600 000 t/y of waste that would otherwise go to landfill.

It will also generate enough electricity for up to 50 000 homes a year and district heating for up to a further 60 000 homes.

Value
The project is estimated at €500-million.

Duration
The project will take three years to complete.

Latest Developments
The European Commission has completed a lengthy probe into the contract agreed with waste company Covanta to construct the facility in Dublin 4.

The commission has ruled in favour of the four Dublin local authorities and has given its approval for the project to proceed.
European officials spent several months examining the details of the contract after receiving a compliant from a member of the public.

The complaint alleged that the PPP contract with Covanta breached European Union regulations on State aid and procurement.

Key Contracts and Suppliers
None stated.

On Budget and on Time?
Not stated.
