Existing MSWI plant (capacity 50 000 t/a) is in Turku (since 1975), and more burning capacity is planned there for 150 000 t/a. MSWI plants in the future In Riihimäki the construction of 150 000 t/a plant has already begun and further away in Kotka there is environmental permit for an 80 000-100 000 t/a plant. Environmental permits were complaint about in Lahti, Kerava and Pori and that has interrupted projects for a while. In Jyväskylä and Seinäjoki environmental impact assessments has been done. Also Helsinki Metropolitan Area Council (YTV) has decided to start planning a new MSWI plant, decisions about position, capacity and technique will be made in the near future.  
 
Also co-incineration has been used for waste, even though the tightened legislation has reducing this technique. For example in Pietarsaari tests for burning RDF in existing plant (refuse derived fuel) with other fuels has been recently done (capacity earlier 80 000 t/a).

There are many plans for MSWI plants in the future. In Riihimäki the construction of 150 000 t/a plant has already begun and further away in Kotka there is environmental permit for an 80 000-100 000 t/a plant.

Expert estimate for MSWI plants to come true during next years say that the most likely plants are in Turku, Riihimäki and more distant Kotka. Other possibilities on the grounds of situation are Lahti, Pori Jyväskylä and Seinäjoki.
