AJKA POWER PLANT

Veolia’s Ajka power plant generates electricity, district heat and industrial steam. The annual fuel demand of Ajka power plant is approximately 600,000 tons, which is largely provided from renewable energy sources: woody biomass, agricultural and sawmill by-products. In addition, to a lesser extent we use SRF (Solid Recovered Fuel) in the power plant in accordance with the relevant permit issued by the regulatory authority. SRF is a blend of paper and plastic, the material of which is no longer recyclable, and has undergone a rigorous testing and product qualification process. The use of this chlorine-free commercially available fuel is widely accepted in Europe, as it has favourable environmental indicators while it can replace significant amounts of fossil fuels.

Heat capacity: 360 MW
Electric capacity: 131.6 MW
