Decarbonisation Strategies

At EDC, we understand that decarbonisation is central to the future of the Energy from Waste sector. Beyond energy recovery, these facilities must contribute meaningfully to climate goals by reducing emissions, maximising efficiency, and integrating with wider renewable energy systems. Our MEP design approach focuses on delivering solutions that are not only efficient and compliant today but are also future-ready, supporting carbon capture readiness, district heating integration, and lifecycle carbon reduction. We work closely with developers and contractors to design smart systems that help Energy from Waste facilities play an active role in achieving net-zero ambitions across Ireland and the UK. How does EDC help you to achieve this?
