Viridor Energy Limited is part of the Viridor group, a UK business operating in resource recovery, recycling and waste management. The wider group runs a fleet of Energy from Waste facilities that process over 3.5 million tonnes of non-recycled waste annually, generating energy from residual waste. The group is also investing in Plastics-to-Liquids pyrolysis technology to expand plastic recycling capability and pursuing decarbonisation, including carbon capture at its Energy from Waste sites, with ambitions to become carbon neutral by 2040. This entity itself is a registered company within that wider corporate structure rather than a standalone operating unit described separately in the evidence.
