Waste Becomes Energy

Korea, a country lacking in resources, now generates energy from waste. We create sustainable future values by creating a resource circulating energy town that turns wastes into resources and energy.

Resource-circulating Waste Disposal System

50MW Power Plant

The 50 MW power plant is the largest one in the world in terms of the amount of generated power and captured landfill gas. The eco-friendly power station uses methane (representing 50% of the landfill gas), which is the main contributor to global warming, as its fuel to generate electricity. The UNFCCC recognizes this business as a Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) for its successful greenhouse gas reductions through fossil fuel substitution and landfill gas combustion. It enabled the SLC to receive carbon credits, etc., thereby actively joining the global response to global warming.
