ANDRITZ TO SUPPLY BOILER PLANT TO ONE OF THE LARGEST WASTE-TO-ENERGY CENTRES IN FRANCE
This extension will increase the centre’s capacity in renewable energy production and thus contribute to reducing the carbon footprint of the region near Paris. Start-up of the line is scheduled for 2025.

ANDRITZ has received an order from Idex, the leading medium-sized energy services company in France, to supply a third waste treatment line to a waste-to-energy centre in Villers-Saint-Paul, which is operated by Idex.
ANDRITZ’s scope of supply includes the engineering and manufacturing of a vertical boiler with grate combustion system, assembly of the complete boiler equipment on site, commissioning, and trial-run operation. The new line will add the capacity to treat 80,000 tons of high calorific waste (MSW/RDF) annually. In total, all three lines combined, the Villers centre will thus be able to treat almost 260,000 tons of waste per year, providing renewable energy for 13,500 households.
The waste-to-energy centre in Villers-Saint-Paul is operated by Idex on behalf of the owner, Syndicat Mixte du Département de l’Oise (SMDO). Shortly before the current project, Idex had successfully collaborated with ANDRITZ on an EPC project for a complete biomass power plant in French Guiana.
“We are pleased that we will once again cooperate with experts from ANDRITZ on such a demanding project. The planned investment will enable consumers to benefit from competitive energy prices, given the development of gas prices in recent years,” said Jean-Pierre Lamalle, Director of Major Infrastructure Project Development at Idex.
