Beschreibung

The project consists of the construction and commissioning of a new combined heat and power (CHP) plant for Sofia's district heating network operated by Toplofikacia utilising refuse derived fuel (RDF) to be produced at the municipality's new waste management facility. This would be the final phase of the integrated Sofia Municipal Waste project. The project is likely to be co-financed under the OP Environment during 2014-2020 and it is on the JASPERS action plan to support the prepration of the grant application.

Ziele

The plant will combust refuse derived fuel (RDF), feed its electricity into the public grid, and provide heat to the district heating system of Sofia. It will partly replace heat generation in existing natural gas fired installations.

The project concerns the construction and operation of a cogeneration plant processing more than 100 t/day of refuse derived fuel (RDF) from a mechanical biological treatment plant in Sofia. Hence the project is subject to Annex I of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2011/92/EC and consequently requires a mandatory EIA. It falls also under the provisions of the Industrial Emission Directive 2010/75/EC requiring, among others, use of best available technology.
