Campbelltown. Trash in power

By the time the $50 million Macarthur Resource Recovery Centre, at Jack’s Creek, is fully operational in March, it will be carbon neutral and producing enough energy to meet its own needs and returning electricity to the grid to power 1700 homes annually. The facility, the first of its type in Australia, aims to process 90,000 tonnes of household waste a year produced by residents in Camden, Campbelltown, Wollondilly and Wingecarribee local government areas. The plant employs 40 people. WSN Environmental Solutions build the plant.
