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. Across all of WIN Waste’s waste-to-energy facilities, processing one ton of waste avoids up to two tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) into the atmosphere.

Every one ton of waste processed at the WIN Waste Bridgeport facility is equal to the equivalent of 1.7 tons of net CO2e emissions avoided
