Visit Amager Bakke
Visit us and see what is hidden under Copenhagen’s ski slope!
We offer a visit to Amager Bakke, which includes a tour of the energy plant as well as a presentation of ARC’s work in society, including how we handle everything with waste. The visit is for companies, associations, educational institutions, organizations and other guests who are interested in ARC’s work to make the management of waste climate-neutral.
NB: We are experiencing a great demand. Therefore, we recommend that you book your visit to ARC well in advance. If there are no available times in the calendar, it means that everything is busy.
ARC is an integral part of the big city. You will see us around the city, where we run recycling centers and collect waste from the city’s citizens. ARC contributes positively to the green transition by facilitating recycling areas, where you can hunt for good things or put things away that are too good to throw away. The waste that cannot be reused or recycled, we convert into electricity and district heating. We offer a limited number of standard visits, where you can get a unique insight into the technology that converts residual waste into electricity and district heating.
