The island is located between the mainland and nearby Malmö and is a popular destination with sports and nature lovers. The state-of-the-art waste-to-energy plant is one of the most advanced in the world and was designed by engineers at Ramboll, guaranteeing high efficiency and very low emissions. Copenhill produces heat that the city can use to heat water, produce electricity that is pumped into the mains, and can recycle between 15% and 20% of the incinerated waste. As well as being one of the most important constructions completed in the Danish capital in recent years from an environmental point of view, in 2019, the incinerator also became a new urban landscape thanks to the iconic architecture of the Bjarke Ingels studio. The architect used a shiny perforated
