Covanta, a world leader in sustainable waste management and renewable energy, announced this summer a new 20-year agreement with New York City Department of Sanitation to transport and sustainably dispose of municipal solid waste (MSW) delivered to a pair of marine transfer stations located in Queens and Manhattan. Covanta is the largest owner and operator of Energy-from-Waste (EfW) facilities in North America and plans to utilize capacity at existing facilities to convert the city’s MSW into clean energy. It is anticipated New York City will deliver approximately 800,000 tons of MSW per year, which reflects the city’s continued efforts to reduce waste generation and increase recycling.
