Benefits to Malpils

Malpils has been chosen as the site for this development as it is a growing township with increasing energy needs and a progressive and forward thinking township administration.

The development of the plant at Malpils will have a number of benefits:

• Malpils will enjoy green energy
• Heating costs will be lower than using just biomass through a conventional boiler or any fossil fuel
• Waste management in Malpils will be the most advanced in Latvia
• New skilled and semi skilled jobs will be created in Malpils
• Visitors are expected to come to Malpils to see the plant which will help local tourism
• The area behind the old district heating building which is now wasteland will be developed into a modern, clean building with the old oil tanks, which are a hazard, removed.
