CopenHill, also known as Amager Bakke, is a unique and innovative waste-to-energy plant located in Copenhagen, Denmark. It is renowned for its groundbreaking design that combines a waste incinerator with a recreational facility, including a ski slope and hiking trail.
The idea behind CopenHill was to create a facility that not only efficiently disposed of waste but also incorporated sustainable and recreational elements to benefit the community. The project was initiated by the Danish architecture firm Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) and was completed in 2019.
The power plant component of CopenHill is responsible for converting waste into electricity and district heating. It processes municipal solid waste from the city of Copenhagen and nearby areas. The incineration process reduces the volume of waste while generating heat and steam, which in turn drive turbines to produce electricity. The facility plays a vital role in Copenhagen's ambitious goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2025.
What sets CopenHill apart is its unique design. The architects transformed the plant into a recreational area by adding a 450-meter-long artificial ski slope on the roof. This feature allows visitors to enjoy skiing, snowboarding, and sledding, even in the middle of a city. The slopes are covered with synthetic material resembling snow, which can be used year-round, regardless of weather conditions. Additionally, there is a climbing wall on the side of the building, adding to the adventure and recreational options.
CopenHill's rooftop area also offers stunning panoramic views of Copenhagen, providing visitors with a unique perspective of the city. The facility has become a popular destination for tourists, locals, and outdoor sports enthusiasts.
From an environmental perspective, CopenHill is designed to minimize emissions and ensure energy efficiency. The plant utilizes advanced filtering technologies to reduce pollution, and the excess heat generated during the incineration process is used to provide district heating to nearby residential and commercial areas.Overall, CopenHill is a remarkable example of combining sustainable waste management with recreational amenities. It showcases how innovative architectural design can contribute to a more sustainable and enjoyable urban environment.
