Sweden relies on energy production from waste and biomass
In 2020 Sweden will the first country in the world, the supply of energy are deprived of oil. The production of energy from waste and biomass are increasingly gaining in importance. The trade fairs “Elmia Waste & Recycling” and “World Bionenergy”, both of 30 May to 1 June 2006 held in Jönköping, show technical solutions for this ever-growing future market. Here, also German suppliers the opportunity to contacts with professionals and clients from across the Scandinavian region to establish. The German representative for this country fairs, the industry insider Freesen & Partner GmbH from Alpine. A at the World Economic Forum in Davos published ranking Sweden is the environment in Europe Platz 1 Among the many environmental programmers of the Nordic country projects include the dependence on expensive imported energy should be reduced. The installations are impressively demonstrate how spot available from sources such as municipal, industrial and hazardous waste and clean energy from biomass can be extracted economically. 29 so-called “Waste-to-Energy facilities in Sweden, for example, currently in operation, in which 2004 more than 3.1 million tons of waste incinerated and 9.3 terawatt hours (= 9.3 billion kilowatt-hours) energy was produced. The largest part is accounted for by the heat production (8.6 TWh), the remainder of electricity benefit. The use of bio-energy acts Sweden has long been at the forefront worldwide and promoted with tax incentives and support programmers to develop new technologies and energy supply systems. Sales of fuel oil for private households to 17% from its peak in 1973 decreased. The oil consumption in households and in the service sector has since 1994 reduced to 15.2 TWh. In industry, the consumption of fossil energy kept constant, while increasing production by 70% over the same period. According to estimates, could constrain the use of biomass for Nahwarmeversorgung in 2010 to 33 TWh increased. Overall, the Swedish Nahwarmesektor plans new investments of 42 billion SEK (4.5 billion euros) to the heat and electricity production targets for 2010. Co-organizer of the “Elmia Waste & Reycling” is the Swedish Association of Waste RVF. The “World Bionenergy” is under the auspices of King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden and is funded by the Swedish Bioenergy Association SVEBIO mitorganisiert. Overall, the organizers expect some 175 exhibitors and more than 5,000 visitors to the exhibitions and the accompanying conferences. For German providers who participate in a fair presence in this growing segment are interested, is now with the Freesen & Partner GmbH industry experts to contact.
