Investment & Management

Water & Wastewater Treatment

ECOVE integrates twenty years of knowledge and experience in environmental services to develop efficient and sustainable water and wastewater treatment plants.

ECOVE’s strong track record, sound financial status, and two decades of experience in the environmental service industry guarantees industry-leading water and wastewater treatment services. Our team of experienced professionals works closely with our clients to enhance wastewater to a standard suitable for industrial use, increasing the value of the water and providing a circular solution to wastewater treatment.

Investment Model

ECOVE has extensive experience with public-private partnership (PPP) projects, including projects that are fully and partially funded by the government. We are able to prepare the following PPP contracts:

  • Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT)
  • Build-Own-Operate (BOO)
  • Build-Transfer-Operate (BTO)
  • Rehabilitate-Operate-Transfer (ROT)

Management

ECOVE professionals oversee each project throughout the life of the contract, ensuring each plant is constructed and operated according to requirements. We manage the schedule during the construction phase and the contract during the operations phase, while taking special care to closely monitor each project’s progress. We emphasize efficient communication with all stakeholders, maintaining positive relationships with relevant parties throughout the extensive length of a typical contract. We provide professional support and create an atmosphere of efficient communication to encourage healthy working relationships.

Consortium Partnerships

With years of experience managing PPP projects, we have a clear understanding of the responsibilities, risks, and rewards associated with these projects and how to build strong partnerships to create successful consortiums. Over the years, we have formed and managed multiple effective consortium partnerships, both local and overseas, by following clear consortium agreements and good governance practices. We have built strong relationships with our partners — construction contractors, service providers, lenders, and operations and maintenance providers — efficiently communicating across different industries to create successful consortiums.

Financing

We are responsible for providing all necessary funds to finance the development of wastewater treatment projects. With years of experience and in-depth knowledge of wastewater treatment, we can accurately predict capital expenditure (whole-life cost) for a new facility, eliminating the risk of capital shortcomings and cash flow issues.

Our major sources of funding:

  • capital expenditures from shareholders
  • corporate loans from banks and financial institutions (e.g. debt, equity, bonds)
  • third party funds, and
  • direct funding from the government
