RZZO has a long-term contract for the management of municipal waste with the city of Ostrów Wielkopolski, Greater Poland and it has built a number of modern waste management facilities in the region.
Under the LOI, RZZO has agreed, subject to final contract, that it will provide a plot of land at one of its facilities with the necessary utilities to operate a HUI waste plastic to hydrogen plant, incorporating Powerhouse Energy’s DMG® technology, it will provide assistance with the permitting of the site, it will source and provide the waste plastic feedstock necessary to operate the system and it will assist in procuring funding for the plant from EU, national or local grants and/or private funding.
