SELECTION OF DEVELOPER
After completion of the feasibility study, the EMC solicited proposals for private sector
development of the landfill gas to energy project. After a formal proposal and evaluation
process, a team led by Hyundai MOBIS won the right to develop the project. KOPEC and SCS
were teamed with Hyundai MOBIS.
Hyundai MOBIS and its development partners formed a company named Eco Energy. KOPEC
was retained as the design engineer and construction manager for the project. SCS was retained
by KOPEC as a subcontractor. SCS was retained to provide advice on landfill gas management
and power plant design.
The Sudokwon Landfill Site Management Corporation (SLC) installed a 6.5 MW reciprocating
engine plant at the Sudokwon Landfill, as a demonstration project, in 2001, independent of the
development of the main landfill gas to energy project.
