Lounavoima Oy is a leading brand in sustainable energy solutions, paving the way for a circular economy in southwestern Finland. Their state-of-the-art Korvenmäen ekovoimalaitos, which commenced operations in spring 2021, converts non-recyclable municipal waste into local energy. This modern facility not only meets strict emission requirements but also produces approximately 90% of the district heating and electricity distributed in Salo.

Lounavoima Oy, owned by Lounais-Suomen Jätehuolto Oy and Salon Kaukolämpö Oy, actively promotes solutions that support recycling and emissions reduction. They implement innovative development projects to enhance the circular economy and promote positive climate impacts. Furthermore, Lounavoima's neighboring geothermal deep heat storage aims to store excess summer heat for high demand periods in winter.

The company's dedication to sustainability extends to exploring the conversion of landfill gas into transportation fuel and harnessing CO2 produced by the ekovoimalaitos. With an annual waste capacity of 120,000 tons and a power output of 44 MW, the facility reduces carbon dioxide emissions from district heating production by half in Salo.
