A geothermal heat well storage has been commissioned at Lounavoima’s Waste-to-Energy (WtE) plant at the Lounapuisto circular economy park in Salo. The test run results for the first well have been good, and a decision has been made to construct three additional wells.  Upon completion of the project, the WtE plant will have six geothermal heat wells with a combined output of 6MW. Waste heat produced by the WtE plant is stored in the geothermal heat wells and used for district heating in the winter.
