Netherlands-based sustainability company Twence is set to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from energy produced as a result of processing non-recyclable residual waste.
The Hengelo-based plant will also receive a subsidy from the Netherlands’ Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate of Є14.3m, which could be a key part of ensuring Twence reaches its carbon capture target for the plant, 100,000 tonnes of CO2 per year.
