Kwinana Energy Recovery
Integrating the recovery and reuse of non-recyclable waste with the generation of renewable energy.
Overview
KER is now owned by Spanish infrastructure and renewable energy company ACCIONA, with the development and operations supported by technology provider Keppel Seghers, and waste management company Veolia.
KER acknowledges funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) and The Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC).
Kwinana Energy Recovery (KER) will be the first facility in Australia that integrates recovery and reuse of waste with the generation of electricity set to deliver renewable baseload power to a large metropolitan population and an industrial base.
We acknowledge the Whadjuk people of the Noongar nation as the traditional custodians of this country, its waters and the land that Kwinana Energy Recovery stands. We pay our respects to Noongar elders past and present, and acknowledge their wisdom and advice in our teaching and cultural knowledge activities.
