Mondi Syktyvkar managing director Klaus Peller said: “The power plant is a key part of the mill infrastructure. It also provides over 15% of electric energy demand within the Komi Republic and is a single heating source for the Ezhva district with a population of 60,000 people.

“Through significant investment and efforts of a highly professional team, we have installed a state of the art power plant which will ensure stable generation of heat and electric energy for the mill and the surrounding region, and reduce the overall environmental footprint of the mill as we move towards a low-carbon economy.”

Last month, Mondi enhanced its recycled paper operations by launching three new products including NAUTILUS ProCycle, NAUTILUS ProCycle high-speed inkjet and NAUTILUS SuperWhite for HP Indigo under the NAUTILUS brand.
