Keppel completes upgrade of Singapore's third waste-to-energy plant

The plant's capacity is increased to 2,310 tonnes per day.

Two years after the agreement pushing for the capacity upgrade of Senoko
Waste-to-Energy plant was inked, Keppel announced that it has completed the
said upgrade ahead of deadline.

The announcement was issued by Keppel Infrastructure Fund Management (KIFM),
the Trustee-Manager of Keppel Infrastructure Trust (KIT).

In a statement, KIFM said it has completed the capacity upgrade of the said
plant on September 1.

"The upgrade was completed earlier than planned and on budget," Keppel said.

The upgrade was announced in 2014 after Senoko Waste-to-Energy Pte Ltd
entered into an agreement with the National Environment Agency (NEA) to
progressively increase the capacity from 2,100 tonnes per day to 2,310
tonnes per day.

KIFM was tasked to upgrade six incineration units. he capacity payments from
NEA was correspondingly increased with the completion of each incineration
unit upgrade

"The upgrading works was carried out progressively and scheduled with the
planned annual maintenance of each incineration unit so as to optimise the
overall operational availability of the plant during the upgrading period,"
the group said.
