Diverting organic waste away from landfill
ReWaste is an award-winning solution to the problem of organic waste polluting our environment. Established by Yarra Valley Water, the facility processes a broad range of food waste, turning it into renewable energy to power vital sanitation services.
This diverts thousands of tons of waste away from landfill and creates 8,600,000 kWh in renewable energy every year.
The facility, located at Wollert in Melbourne’s north, became fully operational in 2017. It is a first for Victoria, and a first for the water industry in Australia.
ReWaste benefits businesses, communities and our planet.
