CopenHill is an urban mountain in Copenhagen built on top of a state-of-the-art waste-to-energy plant. The plant safely burns waste, turning the exhaust into energy that over the course of a year provides electricity for 30,000 households and central heating for 72,000 households in Copenhagen. The structure also has a hiking track and a climbing wall.
