company logo

GENeco provides a recycling service for the production of renewable energy. Their technology can generate power from your waste, diverting it from landfill, through a process that benefits the environment and potentially reduces your business or organisation’s operating costs. GENeco also produce a nutrient-rich fertiliser which has been used by the farming community for many years.

Part of the Wessex Water group of companies, GENeco has the resources, experience, skills and financial strength to offer secure, long-term commitment to businesses, organisations and the agricultural sector looking to become more environmentally friendly.

Generating around 35GWh of electricity a year, with the exception of landfill gas, they are producing more electricity than all the other forms of renewable energy combined in the region.

Research suggests that nationally, the anaerobic digestion of food waste, livestock slurries, sewage sludge and energy crops to produce biogas could contribute approximately 10 to 20TWh of the UK’s heat and power by 2020, which represents up to 7.5% of the renewable energy estimated to be required by 2020.¹

GENeco provides an opportunity for companies and organisations to reduce their impact on the environment improving their green credentials in a cost effective way.

The Bio-Bug runs on methane gas generated during the sewage treatment process. Waste flushed down the toilets of just 70 homes in Bristol is enough to power the Bio-Bug for a year, based on an annual mileage of 10,000 miles. MORE INFO & STATS >>
