AECOM, Binnies and Ramboll joint venture appointed for Phase 2 of Singapore's Integrated Waste Management Facility
A joint venture between AECOM (NYSE:ACM), Binnies and Ramboll today announced that it has been appointed by Singapore's National Environment Agency (NEA) to deliver multi-disciplinary consultancy services for Phase 2 of the Integrated Waste Management Facility (IWMF). The facility will be a sustainable, highly advanced waste disposal facility that is integral to NEA's long-term plans to meet Singapore's future solid waste management needs.
Building on its role as Owner's Engineer for Phase 1 of IWMF, which is currently being delivered by a team led by AECOM and Binnies with support from Ramboll, the joint venture will support the next phase of this nationally-significant project, located within Tuas Nexus — Singapore's first integrated water reclamation and solid waste treatment facility.
Phase 2 will be designed to process up to 2,900 tons of waste per day, converting waste into energy while supporting resource recovery and exploring future carbon capture integration. IWMF's co-location with the Tuas Water Reclamation Plant supports energy and resource recovery, reduces environmental impact and makes efficient use of space in land-scarce Singapore.
The joint venture will deliver services across planning, design, procurement support, construction supervision, and testing and commissioning. Drawing on its experience from Phase 1, the team will apply a refined multi-contract delivery approach that supports safe, efficient project execution.
Ian Chung, Chief Executive of AECOM's Asia region, said: "The IWMF is a landmark project that reflects Singapore's leadership in sustainable resource management. As Owner's Engineer for Phase 1, we bring a strong understanding of the site, deep knowledge of the design and construction requirements, and its importance to Singapore. Together with our partners, we draw on global experience delivering complex, integrated infrastructure to support Singapore's long-term growth and its sustainability ambitions."
William Yong, Binnies Singapore Managing Director, said: "This new phase at Tuas Nexus combines the expertise of leaders in waste-to-energy engineering from AECOM, Binnies and Ramboll. Our team brings its global and local experience and proficiency in project management and construction supervision to support the development of this cutting-edge waste, water and energy processing system. The IWMF will play a significant role in the sustainable handling of municipal waste from across Singapore, making full use of the potential for energy generation on site through its advanced incineration systems, while exploring the infrastructure's suitability for future carbon capture capabilities."
Nick Fellows, Ramboll's Managing Director for APAC, said: "As joint venture partners, we are honored to continue supporting NEA in delivering Phase 2 of the IWMF. By combining our regional strengths and global expertise, the partnership will deliver innovative and efficient waste-to-energy solutions. Together, we will work to realize the project benefits and set a new standard for resource recovery in the region and beyond."
The joint venture combines local project experience with global waste-to-energy knowledge and practical experience, having delivered more than 200 facilities worldwide. Its continued involvement across both phases brings familiarity with site conditions, stakeholder requirements and the broader Tuas Nexus development.
Once completed, IWMF Phase 2 will play a key role in implementing Singapore's integrated approach to waste and water management.
