AlBihouth waste-to-energy project reaches 90% construction and completes boiler tests

Tadweer Group reported on 26 October that construction of its AlBihouth waste-to-energy facility had reached 90%, with pressure testing successfully completed on both boilers.

The developer also recorded six million working hours without a lost-time injury. Boiler pressure testing is a construction-quality milestone; the announcement does not establish completed plant commissioning or commercial operation and gives no test pressure or hold duration.

Shareholders include Tadweer Group, Marubeni, Kanadevia Inova and JOIN. Once operating, the facility is expected to treat roughly half of Abu Dhabi’s municipal household waste and contribute to the emirate’s landfill-diversion goals.

Tadweer expects the facility to process approximately 900,000 tonnes of waste and produce electricity sufficient for about 52,000 homes. The release does not explicitly state a reporting period alongside the waste quantity, so it is not presented here as an annual operating result. Both figures are forward-looking expectations.
