ENERGOS

Environmental Performance

ENERGOS is a leader in converting waste into an abundant, carbon-neutral* source of clean energy. It may surprise you, but an ENERGOS AS kWh has lower green house gas impact than a kWh from an oil or coal-fired power plant.**

* The biomass fraction of waste is classified as carbon-neutral. Fossil fractions (e.g. plastic) are not.
** Refer to IEA Bioenergy "Municipal Solid Waste and its Role in Sustainability".

Superior Emissions Record

  • ENERGOS emissions are significantly below EU limits (2000/76/EC)
  • ENERGOS uses a patented two-stage thermal treatment process with gasification and high-temperature oxidation
  • Fuel is thermally converted into high temperature flue gas, principally O2, CO2, H2O and N2 and stable inorganic bottom ash. The thermal energy in the flue gas is recovered by a Heat Recovery Steam Generator, while contaminants in the flue gas are removed in the flue gas cleaning system
  • ENERGOS emissions are regularly verified and approved by Environmental Agencies at all operating plants
