Waste Energy Corp Embarks on Mission to Divert, Convert & Eliminate Plastic Waste Through Clean Energy Innovation
Company Secures First Waste-to-Energy Conversion Site in Fayetteville, North Carolina
FAYETTEVILLE, NC / ACCESS Newswire / February 13, 2025 / Waste Energy Corp ("Waste Energy" or the "Company"), (OTCQB:WAST), an emerging waste-to-energy (WTE) company at the forefront of sustainable innovation, dedicated to diverting plastic and tires waste stream from oceans, streams, nature and food supplies, proudly announced that it has signed a binding letter of intent to secure and build out its first waste-to-energy conversion site in Fayetteville, North Carolina. The move marks the first step in a long journey to divert, convert, and utilize plastic waste streams as a fuel source-permanently removing it from the cycle that pollutes America's landfills, oceans, and waterways. The Fayetteville facility is expected to be fully operational and revenue generating by the second quarter of 2025.
"Our commitment to play our part in a cleaner planet and a more sustainable future is taking a giant leap forward with the opening of the Fayetteville facility," said Scott Gallagher, Chairman and CEO of Waste Energy Corp. "We are thrilled to have secured up to 26,000 square feet of space to build out and operate our first waste-to-energy conversion site. The Fayetteville location will be able to divert and convert up to 30 tons of plastic waste per day. We are turning plastic waste into an asset, demonstrating that environmental responsibility and business profitability can go hand in hand."
Gallagher went on to say, "Fayetteville's strategic location along the primary rail line serving the Eastern United States-from Florida to Maine-combined with its access to the vital I-95 corridor, made it a prime choice as we meticulously mapped out and searched for the ideal location. Our project is launching at a pivotal moment when both the nation and the world are facing an escalating crisis in plastic waste management and energy sustainability. Now, more than ever, innovative solutions like ours will be essential to driving real change."
Rob Patton, Executive Vice President of FCEDC (Fayetteville Cumberland Economic Development Corporation) stated, "As a growing center of innovation, this is an excellent example of cutting-edge technology addressing a global need. We are proud to welcome Scott and Waste Energy Corp. to Fayetteville and Cumberland County."
Plastic Waste by the numbers:
Only around 5% of plastic waste in the US is recycled.
Over 86% of plastic waste in the US is sent to landfills.
In the time it took you to watch the Super Bowl (3.5 hours), North Carolinians sent approx. 978,092 plastic drink bottles to a landfill.
Globally, over 400 million tons of plastic waste are generated annually, with only 9% effectively recycled.
The United States alone discards nearly 40 million tons of plastic waste per year, with over 85% ending up in landfills or the environment.
If left unchecked, experts estimate that by 2050, there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish by weight.
Through its innovative use of pyrolysis and AI technology, Waste Energy Corp aims to significantly divert plastic waste from America's landfills while producing net clean energy alternatives, reducing dependency on fracking & middle east oil sources, and permanently eliminating plastic waste from polluting ecosystems.
The Fayetteville site is just the beginning. Waste Energy Corp's long-term vision includes expanding its waste-to-energy operations and its impact nationwide.
