SSWPP (belonging to Nam Son solid waste treatment complex, Soc Son district, Hanoi) is currently operating 3/5 incinerators, processing about 3 thousand tons of garbage/day and night, considered the largest waste power plant in Vietnam and the second largest in the world (after China's Shenzhen Waste Power Plant).
Up to now, the plant has processed about 1 million tons of waste from Hanoi city. Currently, the plant operates 3 incinerators, receiving about 3,000 tons of waste every day, equivalent to about 40 - 50% of the waste generated in Hanoi city. Here, the entire set of input and output waste is processed - including wastewater, exhaust gas, ash and slag.
With the goal of reaching 129.3MW from waste electricity, the Hanoi People's Committee has issued Plan No. 284/KH-UBND on renewable energy development in 2024.
The plan sets the goal of striving to develop an additional 67MW from the power generation of unit 3 of SSWPP project and the SWPP is in operation, at this time the city's total energy source from waste treatment reaches about 129.3MW.
Increase about 30MW of solar power on people's rooftops and construction work roofs, which encourages the development of self-produced solar power models for self-use and reducing peak load capacity; Improving energy use efficiency for enterprises' factories in industrial zones and clusters, projects using budget capital to invest in new construction works and upgrading of agency headquarters, People's Committees at all levels, ward police agencies, medical stations, schools, etc.
In 2024, the city to put unit 3 of SSWPP into operation
One of the solutions is to choose modern, high-performance waste treatment technology with energy recovery to generate power for new investment projects in domestic waste treatment areas.
Choosing advanced, modern technology for rooftop solar power systems such as high-performance, eco-friendly solar panels; prioritizing the development of rooftop solar power systems with energy storage systems.
