Sainsbury’s transforms food waste into fuel for HGVs

Sainsbury’s is turning its food waste into fuel for a number of its HGV trucks.
From March, the grocery giant’s initiative will see biofuel produced directly from its food waste power 30 trucks at its Emerald Park distribution centre in Bristol, comprising half of the site’s fleet.
The move will save more than 3,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year, equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of 1,950 households.
Waste processor RenECO currently works with the supermarket
