In Operation
The Jordbro facility supplies Nacka, Haninge, Tyresö and Värmdö Municipalities with district heating. Electricity is also produced in Jordbro.
The facility was first commissioned in 1968, and was bought by Vattenfall in 1994. It only uses biofuels – mainly wood chips and demolition wood from the construction industry. This means that production at Jordbro is completely fossil free.
