We take food waste from across the UK and convert it into green energy in the form of biogas and electricity. Over the course of a year, we create enough electricity to power 4,000 homes, making our plant an important part of the UK's renewable energy mix. We operate a 'zero waste to landfill' operation, meaning all the packaging and other materials the food waste arrives in gets disposed of in an environmentally sustainable way.

Situated near Driffield in East Yorkshire, the plant takes in food waste from across the UK and converts it into to renewable energy in the form of biogas and electricity.
At GWE Biogas, we have been processing food waste since 2010 and over that time have learned a lot about effective food waste destruction. All food waste processed by GWE Biogas goes towards the production of biogas and electricity which is fed into the National Grid. No waste processed at our plant goes to landfill, which helps our customers fulfil their environmental obligations.
As well as producing biogas, Anaerobic Digestion also produces a nutrient-rich biofertiliser. The fertiliser is a cost effective and renewable alternative to manufactured fertilisers. Not only does it save farmers significant amounts on their input costs, it has also been seen to increase crop yields, due to increased organic matter and microbial activity with in the soil.
