Energy Central Co (ECCO) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Marina West, Bahrain's new residential development on the kingdom's west coast to build, own, operate, design and transfer a sewage treatment plant for the gated high-rise residential beachfront community .

The sewage treatment plant will process an average sewage discharge of 2,000 cubic metres daily.

The MoU was signed between Khalil Issa, chief executive officer, ECCO, and Mahmood Janai, managing director, Marina West Real Estate Company.

Marina West's developers say it will be 'so much more' than a residential development; more a community that offers top-class boutiques, trendy cafŽs, waterfront restaurants and leisure opportunities with the whole family in mind.

It boasts a private sandy beach, health club facilities, playground area, tennis courts and lagoon shaped pools.

It is a stunning architectural concept that comprises 11 high rise towers, including a grand five-star hotel, that encloses a marina, offering unrivaled scenic views of the sea and landscaping of the 75,000 sqm community.

Energy Central will design, finance, procure, operate and maintain the sewage treatment facility plus relevant infrastructure for the Marina West Development.

A 30-month development and construction programme is well under way and will be completed in the first quarter of 2010.

The 11 towers will accommodate luxury apartments, duplexes, simplexes and penthouse suites and there will be a full range of leisure, recreation and entertainment facilities. Alongside these will be a marina and extensive high quality retail facilities.

Marina West's one, two, three and four-bedroom freehold properties range in size from 77 to 541 sqm.
