In 2023, Engie generated a total of 1,412,816 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 44.76% of Engie's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 55.24% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
In 2023, Engie reported a total waste generation of 1,412,816 metric tonnes, of which 44.76% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Engie is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Since 2021, Engie's total waste generation decreased by 73.51%, including a further 46.75% drop in 2023, highlighting a consistent and deliberate reduction in waste production over time.
Over the same period, Engie's waste recovery rate declined by 1.55%, yet improved by 1.5% in 2023, pointing to a recent rebound or renewed focus on better waste treatment outcomes.
Overall, Engieās waste generation and recovery data show a mixed and inconsistent trend. A deeper analysis of the company's activities, industry benchmarks, and operational changes is needed to assess its sustainability performance more precisely.
In 2023, Engie generated a total of 1,412,816 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 2.36% of Engie's total waste generated of was classified as hazardous waste, characterized by properties such as toxicity, flammability, corrosiveness, or reactivity that may pose risks to human health, ecosystems, or the environment. 97.64% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.
Since 2021, Engie's total waste generation decreased by 73.51%, with an additional 46.75% decline in 2023, suggesting a consistent and deliberate effort to minimize waste generation at the source.
Over the same period, the share of hazardous waste in Engie's total output increased by 224.46%, including a further 120.15% rise in 2023, suggesting a troubling upward shift toward more environmentally harmful waste streams that could raise compliance costs and environmental risks.
Overall, Engie'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.
In 2023, Engie reported that 33,334 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 2.36% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. Approximately 19.61% was managed through recovery methods, indicating a moderate integration of circular practices into its hazardous waste management. However, a significant share was still directed toward disposal, highlighting room for improvement in reducing the long-term impact of hazardous materials.
