What happened
Veolia operates the EarthPower facility in Sydney, which processes organic waste without oxygen to produce biogas. This biogas is then used to generate electricity, while the remaining material is turned into a nutrient-rich soil improver. Following a 2024 upgrade, the facility's processing capacity reached 62,500 tonnes of food waste annually.

Why it matters
The facility treats food waste as a resource rather than a disposal problem, generating enough electricity at full capacity to supply the equivalent of about 4,000 homes. This process addresses the large volume of municipal solid waste produced in the Sydney region.
