| Abstract [eng] |
the object of the research was the Kaunas regional landfill. The assessment of the stored and renewable energy potential shows that the current period is characterized by a rather high annual energy potential of the landfill gas. The landfill also contains a large potential of solid recovered fuel. The annual wind energy potential is almost 5 times lower than the annual landfill gas potential, and solar energy or crops biomass energy potentials is almost 20 times lower. In this way, the production of renewable energy in the landfill would only be appropriate if the potential of the landfill gas and solid recovered fuel is fully exploited. |
