Insights into Alstom's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2024, Alstom generated a total of 77,480metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 91.16% of Alstom's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 8.84% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.a
Alstom's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Alstom's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2024, Alstom reported a total waste generation of 77,480 metric tonnes, of which 91.16% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting.This high recovery rate suggests that Alstom has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.a
Has Alstom reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2022, Alstom's total waste generation increased by 20.27%, including a 17.63%increase in 2024, indicating a persistent upward trend that may reflect scaling operations, inefficiencies in resource use, or a lack of effective waste minimization practices.a
Over the same period, Alstom's waste recovery rate increased by 3.52%, including a 1.05% rise in 2024, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.a
Overall, Alstom has seen a consistent rise in waste generation both over the long term and in the year 2024. However, the company has also steadily improved its waste recovery performance, suggesting that it is actively working to offset the environmental consequences of increased production through enhanced circularity efforts.

How Alstom reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2022, Alstom's total waste generation increased by 20.27%, including a 17.63% rise in 2024, reflecting a persistent upward trend that could be linked to operational growth, inefficient material use, or limited investment in waste prevention systems.a
Over the same period, the share of hazardous waste decreased by 1.25%, yet rose by 6.74% in 2024, potentially signaling operational variability, temporary setbacks, or less effective hazardous waste mitigation in the short term.a
Overall, Alstom's waste and hazardousness trends are mixed or inconclusive. A more detailed review of its materials, industry standards, and operational changes would help clarify the net environmental impact of its waste strategy.a
How does Alstom treat its hazardous waste?
In 2024, Alstom reported that 7,012 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 9.05% of its overall waste generation.a
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods.A majority (74.34%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that Alstom has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.a
