The implementation of the investment will be a key element in achieving the goals of waste management and obtaining energy from alternative sources on the way to energy self-sufficiency for the City of Suwałki. Producing about 140,000 GJ per year, the installation will provide local consumers with about 15% of the heat needed. In turn, the production of electricity (approx. 10,000 MWh) will cover approx. 50% of the annual demand of local government units and municipal companies of the City of Suwałki. The fuel for the Installation will be the energy fraction generated from the mechanical processing of mixed municipal waste and the purification of the raw material fraction (selectively collected waste).
