Kinshasa Thermal Power Station, also Kinshasa Plastics Waste–To–Energy Plant, is a planned -fired in the city of , the capital of the , with an estimated population of 15 million inhabitants, as of August 2021. The waste-to-energy power station will, in the first phase, convert 200 tonnes of plastic waste everyday into "3,50. Two power plants on the Congo River, with installed capacity of more than 1.7 gigawatts, are the country’s main energy suppliers – they alone generate 90% of the electricity consumed in the capital Kinshasa.
[pdf] This calculation illustrates that approximately 1.4 square meters of high-efficiency solar panels would be sufficient to generate the desired 280W. 3. FACTORS AFFECTING SOLAR POWER OUTPUT Beyond efficiency, several environmental and installation variables can impact solar energy output.
[pdf] The plastics-to-energy industrial complex is under development, primarily to address the dire situation of plastic waste in the city of Kinshasa. As of August 2021, it was estimated that 9,000 tonnes of solid waste are generat. .
The power station is under development by Clean-Seas Inc., a "provider of waste management technology solutions", an enterprise, based in the state of . .
The construction budget is quoted as US$30 million (€25 million). Clean-Seas Inc. will design, develop, build, operate and maintain the power plant for 30 years after commissioning. The contracts include a guarantee.
