SECRETS OF THE POWER STATION

Name: SECRETS OF THE POWER STATION
Start: 2021-03-02
End: 2021-03-02
Location: LONDON/UK ENERGY PROFESSIONNAL FORUM

With a virtual walk through the SYSAV Waste-to-Energy Plant in Malmö, Sweden, this event will explore the pros and cons of transforming everyday waste – from food scraps to packaging, appliances and building materials – into electricity and heat for local distribution.
Originally built in response to the oil crisis of the 1970s, the plant has a long history of innovation to boost efficiency and address environmental concerns.

Is waste-to-energy a viable option for local systems in the clean energy transition?
