ABSTRACT

The Papelera del Jarama’s experience can be summarized as: – To have a cogeneration power station that will be paid by the generated energy

savings. – To have a cost advantage over our competitors due to less energy costs by 1992. – To have improved the environment. – Not to have had to spend the company’s money in making the investment. Our company makes paper, we are not energy profesionals. All the goals have

been reached due to the colaboration and help of IDAE. The Temporary Enterprises Union has had many problems starting up because there was no previous experience in Spain in jointventures of this type. We feel that this system, which has been impelled by IDAE, is the best way to achieve cogeneration for financial and technical reasons.
