Osaka, Japan, December 27, 2016-Hitachi Zosen Corporation (TYO:7004) has announced that a consortium it represents received an order for the construction of an Energy-from-Waste plant for the Shioya Wide Area Administrative Association, formed by the cities of Yaita and Sakura, and the towns of Shioya and Takanezawa, in Tochigi.
