TRM S.p.A. (Trattamento Rifiuti Metropolitani) is the Iren Group company that has designed, built and currently manages the Metropolitan City of Turin’s waste-to-energy plant.
The purpose of the waste-to-energy plant is to process urban waste that is not otherwise recyclable after separated waste collection. It uses the energy in the waste by producing electricity and heat and thus makes up the final piece of the integrated waste management cycle.
Burning the waste at a high temperature, the Turin waste-to-energy plant generates new energy to introduce into the network, thus linking the beginning and the end of the production cycle: using waste to create an energy cycle.
