MASTER PLAN, DESIGNED FOR
SUSTAINABILITY AND COMMUNITY

• The client brief was simple-To design a
Campus on a 17 acres site for processing
of 750 MT/day Municipal Solid Waste
(MSW) while producing 7.5 MW of clean
Energy. The design team enhanced upon
this to include:
• Spreading Awareness in Society on MSW
& Related Problems
• Showcase how Industries can build and
operate in a more responsible way leading
to Net Zero Development
• Inclusive Design Process
• Design with Community in mind

Efficient design resulted in utilization of only
20% of the site area for the plant and related
functions, allowing the maximum amount of LEGEND
land for greens, community activities and 1. Visitor’s Entrance
