Low-carbon energy supply

Waste still contains large quantities of energy, which is why we tap into this source to supply you with heat, gas, electricity and new fuels as an effective way to preserve natural resources and combat climate change.

Solid Recovered Fuels

We produce solid recovered fuel using non-hazardous, non-recyclable waste, selected for their high energy potential, such as:

  • items of household waste sent to but not accepted by recycling centers 
  • non-recyclable eco-furniture waste
  • carefully selected industrial waste

SRF come in the form of pellets, briquettes or bales. Their characteristics make them and ideal substitute to fossil fuels to cut your carbon footprint while powering your:

  • cementation, brick and tile furnaces
  • blast furnaces
  • lime kilns
  • industrial and urban heat network furnaces

Biogas from waste

Non-recyclable waste is sent to landfill sites designed in accordance with strict regulations to minimize their environmental impact. As the residual organic materials present in such waste decomposes, they naturally produce methane, a potent greenhouse gas. That is why our facilities are specially equipped with gas capture technology.

After treating the biogas recovered in this way, we convert it into different forms of energy, depending on local needs:

  • direct injection into the natural gas distribution network
  • powering industrial and urban heating network furnaces
  • electricity generation

We tap into the trapped energy contained in non-recyclable waste by incinerating it. The energy is then harnessed by circulating water through furnaces before transporting the steam or hot water through a local heat network several miles to where it is needed.

Some of our facilities also generate heat using Solid Recovered Fuels and biogas from decomposing waste.

Our expert at your service

Our climate strategy

In line with the Paris Agreement to combat climate change, our strategy seeks to reduce our emissions by 25% by 2030 and increase the volume of emissions avoided by our clients by 40% by 2025. 

Reasons to place your trust in us

A partner helping you bring about your environmental transition

As specialists in the circular economy, we develop many solutions to reduce the environmental impact of waste. For example, we sort recyclable materials, produce low-carbon energy, and safely store waste. As part of efforts to combat climate change, we have pledged to cut our clients’ carbon emissions (target: 40% increase in emissions avoided between 2022 and 2025).
