, /PRNewswire/ -- The economic structure of Kashkadarya region, which relies on agriculture and resource-intensive industries, exerts significant pressure on the environment. The population of Samarkand region continues to grow, exceeding 2.8 million. Environmental issues caused by solid waste management are increasingly prominent in both regions.
Waste-to-energy has emerged as a key solution to local environmental challenges. As a global leader in waste-to-energy, SUS ENVIRONMENT has provided environmental and energy services to over 100 million people, establishing offices in 11 countries and regions worldwide.
Uzbekistan has come to agreement with SUS ENVIRONMENT to invest and build WtE projects in both Samarkand and Kashkadarya. Each project is designed with a capacity of 1,500 tons per day. Upon completion, they will provide comprehensive solid waste management and environmental services for 8 million local residents, generating up to 600 million Kilowatt-hour of green electricity annually. The construction and operation of these plants are expected to create 1,000 local jobs.
The Samarkand and Kashkadarya WtE projects will significantly improve local solid waste management and support Uzbekistan's sustainable development.
