A fleet of around 20 refuse collection vehicles is on the road every day in the city on defined routes. Around 7,500 waste and recyclables containers are emptied every day.
Recyclable materials collected in this way, such as biowaste and waste paper, are recycled and returned to the material cycle. Residual materials are thermally recycled and used to generate electricity, which leads to a reduction in the need for other power plants and contributes to the energy turnaround that has been initiated.
