WABAG Secures INR 380 Cr Bengaluru Water Reuse Project 💧
Big news from the water infrastructure world! VA Tech WABAG Limited (WABAG), a name synonymous with sustainable water solutions, has just announced a significant new order that’s set to make waves in Bengaluru’s water future.
The company has secured a substantial INR 380 Crore order from the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB). What makes this even more noteworthy? The project is funded by the World Bank, adding a layer of international backing to this crucial initiative.
This isn’t just any contract; it’s a Design, Build, Operate (DBO) order for state-of-the-art, energy-efficient water reuse facilities in Bengaluru. Think of it as a comprehensive package: WABAG will be responsible for the Design, Engineering, Construction, and Commissioning (EPC) of advanced Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs). These aren’t your average plants; they’ll feature tertiary treatment facilities, biogas generation, and even solar sludge drying beds, along with necessary pumping stations and piping.
The project is slated for completion within 30 months, but WABAG’s commitment doesn’t end there. They’ll also be operating and maintaining these facilities for a full 10 years, ensuring long-term efficiency and reliability. This initiative is a big win for Bengaluru’s water security, enabling industrial reuse of treated wastewater and reducing the city’s reliance on fresh water sources. Plus, the green elements like biogas generation (powering plant operations!) underscore a strong commitment to sustainability.
As Mr. S Natrajan, Vice President, Head-Sales & Marketing, India Cluster at WABAG, highlighted, this repeat order from BWSSB solidifies WABAG’s leadership in the recycling and reuse sector. It’s a testament to their innovative approach and dedication to sustainable development in the water sector.
In essence, this order isn’t just about revenue for WABAG; it’s about shaping a more sustainable and water-secure future for one of India’s major cities. Keep an eye on WABAG as they continue to lead the charge in transforming water challenges into opportunities! 🌊
