The Swedish company EcoEnergy Scandinavia and the Ukrainian government signed an agreement on June 15 to construct and operate waste incineration plants in the country.

“With state of the art technology, these plants will lead to large environmental advantages as well as a new cost efficient energy source for Ukraine,” the company said in its media release.

EcoEnergy will construct and operate up to 14 local plants for incineration of all sorts of waste to produce electricity, heating/cooling and biogas. The environmentally friendly technology used by the company enables carbon dioxide neutral production and operation.

EcoEnergy said it intended to bring third party investors and partners to speed up the implementation of its ambition plan that requires an investment of up to 20 billion euros. The project for the first two cities is planned to start up in the second half of this year.

“High-tech waste-to-energy plants will give us access to a renewable energy source that will be developed in a larger scale – something that will contribute to an increased independence regarding energy supply and for the country as a whole,” said Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko.

EcoEnergy is a Swedish supplier of waste-to-energy (WTE) facilities. The company’s engineering team has been involved in the construction of most of the large scale WTE facilities in Sweden during the last decade.
