Located in Dubai&#8217;s Al Warsan area, the project&#8217;s first phase will convert 45% of the emirate&#8217;s waste into renewable energy when completed. It is planned to enter operation by 2023, while the entire project is projected to be completed by 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Construction began in 2021 to raise the emirate&#8217;s status as a global model of <strong>sustainable development<\/strong>, reduce its carbon footprint, and consolidate <strong>Dubai<\/strong>&#8216;s position as the best city in the world to live and work. With estimates the local population will continue to grow at an ever-faster pace, the project would significantly minimize the potential volume of municipal waste in landfills and create alternative energy sources.<\/p>\n<p>Dawoud Al Hajri, director-general of Dubai Municipality, said with the largest operational capacity in the world, the DWMC could process 1.9 million tonnes of waste annually and convert it into <strong>renewable energy<\/strong>, generating enough power to supply 135,000 households. Once fully operational, the plant&#8217;s renewable energy could feed the local electrical power grid.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by El\u00fasio Brasileiro<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-318045\">Emirates News Agency<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The emirate announced part of its waste management center had been completed.
