Suez Environnement (SEV.FR) and Intrakat SA, part of Intracom Holdings SA (INTRK.AT) have entered into a cooperation agreement to develop municipal solid waste management projects in Greece, the two companies said Monday.

The agreement is oriented towards the development of waste-to-energy projects, an area in which Suez Environnement said it has developed a world class experience, operating more than 50 large Waste-to-Energy facilities in Europe and overseas and processing over 7 million tons every year.

It is expected that several large Greek municipalities will launch public-private partnerships in the coming months, where waste-to-energy systems could play a crucial role, the companies said.
