The bottom ash has for many years been used as construction material in landfills. Now many of the nation's landfills are closed and there is a great need to find another beneficial use for the ash. Bottom ash is a gravel-like material and with its material properties it can replace natural gravel in parts of roads and surface constructions. Today this use is only approved within landfill areas where leachate is collected and checked. Outside the landfill area, authorities are uncertain of the environmental impact of the bottom ash and of what future risks it entails. The aim of this work was to investigate market opportunities for bottom ash from Åmotfors Energy, with the goal to be a background basis for an application of the use of bottom ash outside the landfill area.

  • The Issuer Does Not Fall Under the Scope of Application of the Mifid II Package
    The Issuer does not fall under the scope of application of the MiFID II package. Consequently, the Issuer does not qualify as an "investment firm", "manufacturer" or "distributor" for the purposes of MiFID II. Solely for the purposes of each manufacturerꞌs product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes are appropriate, subject to the distributorꞌs suitability and appropriateness obligations under MiFID II, as applicable. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a distributor) should take into consideration the manufacturersꞌ target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturersꞌ target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels, subject to the distributorꞌs suitability and appropriateness obligations under MiFID II, as applicable. For the purposes of this provision, the expression manufacturer means any Manager that is a manufacturer under MiFID II and the expression MiFID II means Directive 2014/65/EU, as amended.

This walking-tour is approximately 10 km long. Have a nice walk! Start: The square outside the municipality office. The house was built in relation to the merging of the four municipalities. 1. The Library and the park of August Spångberg with the bell tower. Please come in and visit our library with its lovely exhibit hall where you will often find the work of artists from Värmland. The park that is connected to the library was named after a man who was widely known in Eda municipality for many years, August Spångberg (1893-1987). He was born in Nora and arrived in Värmland by the age of 12. He was early on very involved in the temperance movement and went on to become politically active. In 1921 he became the youngest person ever to be voted into the Swedish parliament for the communist party. In 1938 he joined the social democrats instead and remained a member of parliament until he retired in 1963. He was also very active in the peace organization here in Eda. The bell tower in the park belongs to Eda congregation and was designed by the architect Karl Martin Westerberg, Stockholm 1949. It was inaugurated march 24, 1957 by Bishop Gert Borgenstierna.
