Organised by RX Middle East as part of the World Future Energy Summit, with Tadweer Group as Strategic Partner, the milestone exhibition will convene global stakeholders to explore innovative technologies that hold the potential to transform waste management practices.
Ali Al Dhaheri, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Tadweer Group, announced the return of EcoWASTE at a press conference on March 4: “As we usher in the 10th edition of EcoWASTE, we are proud to pioneer opportunities and conversations focused on revolutionising recycling, reducing waste, and promoting a circular economy in the MENA region. Our proactive efforts to unlock the value of waste to help create a greener tomorrow align with our Waste to Zero goals, and ultimate ambition to divert 80% of Abu Dhabi’s waste from landfills by 2030. We look forward to bringing the industry together to exchange insights and engaging with world leaders, experts and the public as we continue to make key contributions to the UAE’s sustainability strategy and global emissions objectives."
With sustainability at the top of the global agenda, the highly anticipated Exhibition at the World Future Energy Summit promises a comprehensive programme spanning three days. Visitors can expect engaging panel discussions, informative case studies, technology showcases, and presentations delivered by industry experts. These sessions will delve into critical topics such as waste to energy, community engagement,the role of the circular economy in government decarbonisation targets, enhancing circular practices to create new revenue streams from waste management and practical approaches to reduce packaging.
This year, Tadweer Group will highlight best practices from its own sustainability initiatives, including the construction of a new waste to energy plant in Abu Dhabi, which will begin in 2024. The plant will both divert waste from landfills and contribute to minimising reliance on traditional fossil fuels.
