Waste to Energy

Electricity from waste. A ton of garbage corresponds approximately to the heat energy of 250 litres of fuel oil.

How it works

From garbage to gigawatt-hours

Waste contains a lot of energy. The facility converts waste through thermal combustion that generates heat. Water circulating through piping reaches boiling point and creates steam, and this high-pressure vapour enters a turbine, rotating the blades at up to 10,000 RPM.

This mechanical rotation drives a generator to produce electricity. The operation supplies its own internal demand and can feed around 63,000,000 kWh into the public grid, supporting thousands of households with clean power.

Key advantages

Why waste to energy energy

Energy-dense fuel

A ton of garbage holds roughly the heat energy of 250 litres of fuel oil.

Less landfill

Recovering energy from waste reduces the volume that ends up in landfill.

Power for the grid

Around 63,000,000 kWh can be fed into the public grid for local households.
