Advanced thermal conversion
GCORE gasification is designed to transform prepared waste into a controlled energy stream for reliable electricity generation.
German technology heritageNPV develops scalable waste-to-power infrastructure for energy-intensive industry, AI data centres and resilient communities.
AI growth is colliding with grid constraints while cities face rising waste volumes. NPV brings both challenges into one investable infrastructure platform: locally sourced feedstock converted into dependable baseload electricity.
NPV combines technology access, project origination, development expertise and capital structuring to move projects from opportunity to bankable infrastructure.
GCORE gasification is designed to transform prepared waste into a controlled energy stream for reliable electricity generation.
German technology heritageSite, feedstock, permitting, offtake, engineering and delivery are integrated into one development pathway.
Project-specific SPVsNPV aligns strategic equity, project finance and long-duration contracted revenues around infrastructure-grade risk allocation.
Institutional disciplineA modular project architecture supports direct-wire, private-wire and grid-connected delivery models, tailored to local regulation, site conditions and contracted demand.
Reference figures illustrate a representative configuration and are not forecasts. Final capacity, availability and economics are project-specific and subject to engineering, contracts, permitting and financing.
GCORE is designed to accept unsorted, mixed waste with limited preparation. The feedstock does not require conventional sorting: loads are managed for energy content and process chemistry before gravity-fed conversion into a usable energy gas for steady, dispatchable generation.
Mixed waste does not require conventional sorting. Limited preparation focuses on load management, removing exceptional out-of-specification items and adding mineral acidity regulators where required. The cited design accepts whole waste items up to approximately 1.2 metres, subject to the final feedstock specification.
The mixed feedstock is gravity-fed and thermally converted in a controlled, oxygen-limited environment. Unlike mass-burn combustion, the primary objective is to create an energy-rich gas.
The process gas is cooled and cleaned to the specification required by the selected power-generation equipment and emissions-control system.
Conditioned gas feeds the generation island, producing dispatchable electricity for direct-wire, private-wire or grid-connected delivery.
Total destruction of waste — no waste residues. Mineral content leaves the reactor as molten slag and becomes chemically inert blast-furnace sand upon cooling.
Firm generation complements weather-dependent renewables by supplying a stable power block across the day and night.
A reference commercial configuration combines multiple reactors with gas cleaning, gas turbines and heat recovery. Standard industrial balance-of-plant equipment is selected around the core conversion system.
The arrangement shown is a reference concept. Final reactor count, generation equipment, redundancy and output require project-specific front-end engineering and independent technical validation.
The core proposition is the conversion of mixed waste into a cleaned energy gas. The surrounding plant can then be configured for power, heat, hydrogen-rich fuel and carbon management according to site economics and regulation.
GCORE is positioned as a syngas-based conversion platform. This changes both the feedstock requirement, the energy pathway and the options available downstream.
An optional configuration applies water-gas shift chemistry to increase the hydrogen share of the fuel gas and concentrate CO₂ before the turbine.
Simplified chemistry: CO + H₂O ⇄ CO₂ + H₂. Carbon capture rates, energy penalties, storage routes and carbon accounting remain configuration- and jurisdiction-specific.
The conversion platform is designed to support multiple revenue and resource-recovery pathways rather than a single electricity output.
Which outputs are commercially viable depends on feedstock characterization, product specifications, local buyers, permits and final process design.
The reactor concept is deliberately mechanically simple, while the surrounding balance of plant uses serviceable industrial equipment.
The design philosophy combines a distinctive reactor with serviceable plant equipment, redundancy and planned access to critical components.
Availability, maintenance intervals, buffer duration and scale-up performance must be confirmed through detailed design, operating evidence and contractual guarantees.
