Our Commitment to Sustainability
At FCC Environmental Services, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. With operations in 7 states and a mission serving more than 12 million people, we are dedicated to reducing carbon emissions and promoting a circular economy. WtE is a key part of this strategy, turning waste into a resource and supporting net zero goals worldwide.
Reducing carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) with waste-to-energy
By offsetting the need for fossil fuels, diverting waste from landfills and recycling thousands of tons of metals, waste-to-energy remains the EPA-preferred method for end disposal. Our process not only preserves valuable natural resources and ever-filling landfill space, but it also reduces greenhouse gases. Processing one ton of waste avoids up to two tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) into the atmosphere.
