A dumpsite converted into a green energy production centre in Meknes

Since 2014, we have transformed what used to be a dumpsite outside the city of Meknes in Morocco.

The site now features waste sorting, biogas recovery and compost production facilities. Biogas from buried waste is captured and piped to a recovery unit. The biogas was initially used as an energy source for the heat treatment of concentrates, and since June 2023 has also been used to generate electricity. As a result, the site is now self-sufficient in terms of energy use.
