Turning Waste into Clean Energy for Victoria
Recovered Energy is developing a next-generation waste gasification facility in Laverton North that transforms landfill waste into reliable, renewable electricity, supporting jobs, reducing emissions, and powering over 40,000 homes.
Our Facility in Laverton North
We're developing one of Victoria’s most advanced Waste-to-Energy plants, fully approved to process 240,000 tonnes per year of residual waste. Using proven gasification technology, the facility will deliver 20+ MW of electricity, enough to power over 40,000 homes, while cutting landfill emissions and recovering valuable materials.
Highlight stats:
Fully permitted under Victoria’s Waste-to-Energy Cap
Construction planning underway
230,000 tpa of waste diverted from landfill
20 MW+ of clean energy generated
400+ construction jobs, 30+ ongoing roles
Why It Matters
Waste-to-Energy plays a crucial role in sustainable waste management by handling materials that can’t be recycled. Through advanced thermal treatment, it transforms residual waste into clean electricity while recovering metals and producing reusable by-products like aggregate, helping reduce landfill use and lower emissions.
Highlight stats:
Cuts methane emissions from landfill
Produces reliable baseload renewable energy
Creates local jobs and economic value
Supports a circular economy
Compliant with Victoria’s environmental standards
