Regenerative Energie
About 400 waste incineration boilers with a total incineration capacity of approx. 45,000 tons of waste per hour exist in Germany today.
Germany is well provided with waste-to-energy plants, there is no demand for further Expansion currently. The same applies to RDF-(refuse-derived-fuel) plants: the incineration capacity to utilize RDF is sufficient for its production in Germany.
There is a very different situation in many other countries in the world. Even today there is a focus on waste disposal and treatment by landfill. However, there are many different reasons for taking another new direction. • Changes in legislation, for example in the new EU accession countries. (The European law about waste 2008/98/EG defines that all EU Member States have to effort to professional refuse utilization. On 31/12/2014 the Commission responsible checks the progress and concepts of the Member States. Having waited and postponed necessary decisions put many countries under pressure today.) • Catastrophic environmental problems by unprofessional realization of landfill • Acceptance problems in population (e.g. in Vietnam, in Brazil and others) • Landfills and their impact as disturbing argument for tourism In many countries the waste amounts are considerable and, even setting for example 35 % of the utilizing waste amounts as target value, there still remains open a high potential for power Generation.
