How ERG reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2021, ERG's total waste generation decreased by 71.35%, with an additional 57.89% 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 ERG's total output increased by 46.04%, including a further 47.54% rise in 2023, suggesting a troubling upward shift toward more environmentally harmful waste streams that could raise compliance costs and environmental risks.
Overall, ERG'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.
How does ERG treat its hazardous waste?
In 2023, ERG reported that 82 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 37.96% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (68.29%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that ERG has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
