Iraq has received 17 bids from local and foreign companies for the construction of a waste-to-energy plant in Nahrawan in the capital Baghdad.

In a statement published on Tuesday, the National Investment Commission (NIC) said a special committee is studying the bids.

NIC said last month the project would be offered as an investment and that it could have a capacity to handle nearly 3,000 tonnes of waste per day.
