Phase II is expected to require an investment of approximately RMB166m ($26.9m).

Designed to have a daily household waste processing capacity of 350t, Sanya phase II will feature a 350t/d furnace and a 7.5MW power generator.

The Sanya Project, including phases I and II, is expected to have a waste processing capacity of 1,050t, generating on-grid electricity of 100 million KWh annually.

Everbright International CEO Chen Xiaoping said: "Following the Sanya Project Phase I and Sanya Sludge Treatment and Disposal Project, the Group further expanded the Sanya Project Phase II, demonstrating once again that Everbright International’s strong brand image, and its technology, operation and management of environmental protection projects have been recognized by the Sanya Government.

"Upon completion of construction, Sanya Project Phase II is expected to further enhance the investment efficiency of the Sanya Project."
