Welcome to The Unofficial
International Database of Waste-to-Energy Plants
Waste-to-Energy facilities use waste products as a fuel for the production of usable energy. Most often the waste is combusted to release the heat which boils water into steam for running turbines and supplying district heating networks, but other technologies and methods exist and are used.
