DP CleanTech CEO Simon Parker presented at 2017 Asia Waste to Energy Congress, Shanghai

On the 30th November – 1st December, the 2017 Asia Waste to Energy Congress took place in Shanghai, China.

Many key Asia Pacific WtE industry players were in attendance, including DP CleanTech’s CEO, Simon Parker, who spoke at the event to share his thoughts on the WtE industry development in China, and the importance of integrated knowledge and execution for successful project development.
