Energy from Waste

National policy recognises energy-from-waste (EfW) as an integral part of the waste solution for the UK, and as an important source of green energy.

SITA UK supports the waste hierarchy, which gives precedence to materials recovery and recycling, while applying EfW technology to recover energy from the burnable element of the residual waste stream.
