The objectives of this project emanate from the need to reduce the energy consumption levels which are generated from fossil fuels and therefore generate pollutants in the process. In this context, the primary objectives of this project are to:• Reduce CO2 and other pollutant emissions which are inevitably produced when generating electricity from a conventional source• Be a contributor to the National Target of 10% generation of energy from renewable sources by 2020• Generate electricity from a renewable source to offset the demand of electricity of the facility.It must be highlighted that the project addresses a number of key areas which the Maltese Government has identified so as to reduce the country’s almost complete dependency on the burning of fossil fuels to satisfy the energy demands. Suffice is to state this project targets some of the various Government policies, strategies and reports issued in this respect. These documents advocate the need for Malta to further develop its renewable energy capacity to achieve the targeted share of 2020.
