Estonia has notably decreased its greenhouse gas emissions (GHG), mainly due to an overall reduction in electricity and heat generation from oil shale and growth in generation from wind,
Systems that capture and reuse waste heat from industrial processes are increasingly being implemented in sectors such as manufacturing, power generation, and oil & gas. Government
In Estonia, almost 300,000 tons of mixed municipal waste per year is left over from sorting at homes – it can be used for producing heat and electricity
High-temperature incineration of waste produced heat to spin turbines for electricity, while residual high-temperature steam was supplied to nearby areas for hot water
By producing electricity and heat from waste, Estonia is able to decrease its dependence on imported energy sources, such as coal and natural gas. This contributes to the country''s
The Competition Authority has confirmed the heat price limit for mixed household waste processed at the Iru power plant to be 12.36 euros per megawatt hour, maintaining its status

In Estonia, almost 300,000 tons of mixed municipal waste per year is left over from sorting at homes – it can be used for producing heat and electricity instead of being dumped in landfills.
By producing electricity and heat from waste, Estonia is able to decrease its dependence on imported energy sources, such as coal and natural gas.
With the completion of the Iru waste-to-energy facility, large-scale mixed municipal waste depositing in landfills will end in Estonia and waste will be reused in order to produce
