To design an energy system, local frames and limitations act the first roles. If you consider Nordic countries, you may find an special focus on the waste-driven district heating systems. If you take a look at countries without any hard winters, however, they prefer to generate waste to energy based electricity. Of course, CHP systems can met both heating and power demands, as my colleagues and I discussed in detail in our latest papers.
