The Gloucestershire Energy from Waste Facility forms part of the wider operations of FCC Environment, one of the UK’s leading recycling and waste management companies.
FCC Environment is part of the global FCC Group, which operates in more than 25 countries and employs more than 67,000 people.
In the UK, FCC Environment recycles 1.5m tonnes of waste each year and generates more than 132MW of green energy.
The company focuses on retrieving the full value of the resources it collects and processes, so that they can be used again as materials, and for waste that cannot be recycled, it transforms it into energy.
Its services cover municipal and business waste collection, recycling, energy from waste, and wider waste processing.
