Rome Waste-to-Energy Plant
Sector: Geothermal • Location: Rome, Lazio, Italy
Source: Il Sole 24 ORE
The project involves the construction of a waste-to-energy plant in the Santa Palomba area of Rome. The plant will treat 600 million tonnes per year of undifferentiated and non-recyclable waste, produce thermal and electrical energy sufficient to power approximately 200,000 households, and transform waste into reusable materials for construction. It includes a Circular Resources Park with research

Description
Description | The project involves the construction of a waste-to-energy plant in the Santa Palomba area of Rome. The plant will treat 600 million tonnes per year of undifferentiated and non-recyclable waste, produce thermal and electrical energy sufficient to power approximately 200,000 households, and transform waste into reusable materials for construction. It includes a Circular Resources Park with research rooms, coworking spaces, an experimental greenhouse, green spaces, and a panoramic tower. Ancillary facilities include a photovoltaic plant, a district heating network, and an experimental CO2 capture system. The plant is designed to meet strict environmental standards and will have an almost zero water footprint. |
