The thermal waste treatment plant Spittelau is steeped in history and tradition. It is one out of four municipal solid waste incinerations plants in Vienna. The plant was built from 1969 until 1971 for the purpose of thermal utilization of municipal waste and household-type commercial waste as well as energy supply of the new General Hospital Vienna two kilometres away via district heating. The plant was equipped with two hot-water boilers to ensure heat supply at all times. Although it is located in the town-centre of Vienna its architectural structure did not differ significantly from the traditional plant structure.
After only six years the plant hadutilized one million tonnes of waste. Throughout the following years, pipelineconstruction over long distances intensified and by 1985 a closed circularpipeline for heating supply had been built around the entire inner city districtof Vienna. Among many others, the parliament, the Vienna Burgtheater and theVienna City Hall, were the first customers of the company Heizbetriebe Wien.The number of supplied buildings increased steadily and the technical plant wasfurther enlarged and adapted to the state-of-the-art. Until today, the pipelinesystem has been provided with hot water supply from waste incineration plantssuch as MVA Flötzersteig, SMVA Simmeringer Haide, MVA Pfaffenau, otherdecentralised plants (Arsenal, Kagran, Leopoldau, Inzersdorf) as well as thecogeneration of the larger KW-Simmering and KW-Donaustadt units.

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
