  1. Usitall AB an independent waste-to-energy developer Vision To provide the market with the most competitively priced energy Mission Usitall shall offer competitively priced energy for base industry by producing it on-site from a wide range of solid waste types on the international market

  2. Export division of Tekniska Verken-Exclusive license agreement • Customers: 215,000 • Employees: 1,057 • Turnover: € 538 million • Profit: € 50 million • Investments: € 68 million Linköping

  3. EU 20/20/20 Targets • CO2: 20% reduction relative to 1990. EU will be willing to put this goal up to 30% if the US, China and India make similar commitments • Renewables: 20% of total energy consumption – implying some 40% of electricity production. Present value 6,5%. • Energy Efficiency: 20% reduction in energy consumption relative to ’business as usual’

  4. More than 50 million ton additional treatment capacity is needed in Europe until 2020 (Industrial waste not included) * Waste market EU-Regional Waste-to-Energy benefits Landfill Directive forces member states to find alternative proven treatment methods to landfilling Waste incineration with energy recovery is officially regarded as an preferred treatment method to landfilling and the only proven technology that together with higher recycling rates can solve Europe's waste problem Waste per capita is expected to increase from 520kg to 680kg in 2020.

  5. There is a demand for more than 2000 TWh of renewable energy from the European basic industry * Energy market EU-Energy off-taker benefits The organic part of the waste is regarded as renewable energy Waste-to-Energy is not included in the Emission Trading System (ETS) and therefore does not require carbon credits Waste-to-Energy render possible independent and locally produced energy Waste-to-Energy has the lowest energy production cost of all known and proven technologies in Sweden

  6. The Waste Sector Swedish waste management excels Reduce EU27 Re-use Recycle 37% 46% Recover 18% 49% Landfill Sweden 45% 4% synergies between recycling & recovery

  7. Background CO2 Achievements in Linköping • EU target 2020 • 20% reduction of CO2 relative to 1990 • Linköping 2008 • 55% reduction of CO2 relative to 1990

  8. Waste-to-energy New products from recycling and reuse - Experience from EU15 shows synergies Energy from non-recyclable waste material No leakage into ground water Minimal GHG emissions, no methane Considerable replacement of fossil fuels Profit from energy sale & waste treatment Freeing valuable space for other purposes • Journal of Environmental Planning & Management • International Journal of Thermal sciences • Journal of Industrial Ecology • The Danish Environmental Protection Agency • Chemical Engineering Journal • International Journal of LCA • Profu • etc. Landfill vs. w aste-to-energy– over 70 studies exa mined, all favour waste-to-energy

  9. Waste is energy!– heat values of different fuels = = 1.6 tons coal/rubber waste 4.5 tons wood 1 ton oil 4 tons waste 5 tons waste wood = = 85 % of MSW in Sweden is of biological origin

  10. Utilized energy from waste in Europe MWh/ton Electricity Heat 3,0 Heat & electricity production (MWh/ton) 2,0 1,0 Italy (2004) Spain (2005) Austria (2005) Holland (2004) Sweden (2005) Belgium (2004) Norway (2002) Hungary (2005) Denmark (2004) Portugal (2005) Germany (2003) Switzerland (2002) Czech republic (2004) Source: Profu

  15. Technology Gärstad Waste-to-Energy plant – State of the art incineration & flue gas treatment

  16. Emissions from thermal treatment of waste*– Improvements in Sweden * Total emissions from all thermal treatment plants in Sweden Amount of waste more than doubled (to 4,5 million tons) during the same period

  17. Gärstad WtE plant Gärstad Waste to Energy plant50 years of experience gathered in one of Europe’s best-practice facilities • Key figures • MSW from 600,000 citizens • Total capacity of 420,000 tons of solid waste • 1.000 GWh of District heating • 200 GWh of electricity Waste fromNorway MSW from 30 municipalities, 15% of Sweden’s total amount of household waste
