Reduction in Greenhouse Gas Emissions

The innovative technology utilised to carbonise and gasify large quantities of waste in our combined closed cycle process generates “Carbon Neutral” green power, making these totally environmentally responsible in the 21st century.

Being “Carbon Neutral” is the state of reducing carbon emissions as much as possible and balancing the remaining carbon emissions by offsetting them with processes that consume carbon.

In the case of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) our gasification process is carbon negative. For every 1,000 tonnes of MSW processed through GS Energy’s gasification processes a saving to the atmosphere of 3,520 tonnes of carbon is achieved.

The main gases in the Earth's atmosphere, nitrogen and oxygen, are almost completely transparent to the sun's rays. But water vapour, carbon dioxide and other gases form a blanket around the Earth, trapping heat.

This process is known as the greenhouse effect. Human activity is increasing atmospheric concentrations of existing greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide and methane). A number of experts believe that these gases are linked to global warming and climate change by way of an enhanced greenhouse effect.
