The Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) expects to grant permission for the second phase of waste-to-energy projects via an auction next month after completing the investment criteria.
Khomgrich Tantravanich, secretary-general of the ERC, said his board will meet to approve the criteria this week, paving the way for state electricity distribution arms -- Metropolitan Electricity Authority (MEA) and Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA) -- to start receiving investment proposals from participating companies.
