OUR VISION
is a world with where
waste fuels a sustainable future.
OUR GOAL
is to be a global leader in the
emerging waste to energy market.

OUR MISSION
is to generate clean, renewable energy
from waste diverted from landfill.

About New Energy


New Energy Corporation Pty Ltd (New Energy) is a leader in the emerging global
Waste to Energy market.

We will achieve this by using the Entech low temperature gasification technology,
developed in Australia and successfully operating at sites in Europe and Asia.

New Energy is committed to sustainable business practices for both the


environment and the communities in which we operate.

We partner with industry and government to recover energy from waste streams
that would otherwise go to landfill. By doing this, the environmental impact from
waste is greatly reduced, with the benefit of producing renewable energy.
