The project can drastically improve the potential of generating electricity from waste by:

• Demonstrating the safe, efficient and sustainable exploitation of non-recyclable waste as a renewable energy source
  
  
• Treating thermally a low quality waste fraction in a gasification facility, eliminating the need for its end-disposal and transport over long distances to end-users
  
  
• Eliminating the need for gas cleaning, a process which has been the main problem that still hinders a widespread utilisation even of biomass gasifiers, by evaluating the potential of direct combustion of fuel gas produced by the waste gasification in an existing electricity generation biogas plant.
  
  
• Assessing the co-habitation of the gasification plant, the MSW recycling facility and the biogas plant to provide a controlled outlet for all disposal streams originating from the gasification and power cycle subsystems
  
  
• Taking advantage of new opportunities and increased maturity at the institutional and entrepreneurial environmen
