Recent developments in carbon capture technologies are also helping to mitigate the carbon emissions from EfW plants. A further key development for the industry is the use of the excess heat for district heating schemes.
Approximately 65% of energy is lost in traditional power plants due to inefficient conversion processes and losses in transmission. More efficient localised generation processes will create significant benefits:
