Solid Recovered Fuel is used as a lower carbon alternative to fossil fuel in cement manufacturing across Europe. Refuse Derived Fuel is exported to countries that harness both heat and electricity from this fuel maximising carbon savings and energy recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Designed and engineered by Re-Gen\u2019s in-house R&amp;D and engineering teams, the Derryboy Road facility incorporates the most up-to-date automation and digital systems, including AI-powered sorting, near infrared recognition, and data analytics to track material efficiency and output quality in real time.<\/p>\n<p>These innovations significantly enhance the company\u2019s role in supporting Northern Ireland\u2019s transition to a low-carbon, circular economy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-286127 perfmatters-lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"1111\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Re-Gen-Waste-1.jpg\"  data-\/><\/p>\n<p>Re-Gen\u2019s revenue has increased from \u00a330m to circa \u00a3100m over the last five years and today employs over 400 people across their two sites, making it a valuable contributor to the local economy and community as well as the largest waste management company in Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph Doherty, CEO of Re-Gen, said: \u201cThis \u00a320 million initial investment marks a major milestone for Re-Gen and for Newry. The Derryboy Road site represents years of planning, innovation, and collaboration by our team and it firmly places Northern Ireland at the forefront of recycling and resource recovery technology in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new facility allows us to develop our black bin waste processes further, reducing dependence on landfill, treating local black bin waste and reducing carbon emissions. This investment directly benefits our local economy by creating new jobs, developing new skills, and strengthening the region\u2019s long-term sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe look forward to rolling out Phase 2 of the Derryboy site as we continue to significantly invest in this outstanding facility.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-286126 perfmatters-lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"1111\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Re-Gen-Waste-2.jpg\"  data-\/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cRe-Gen was founded in Newry and remains deeply connected to this community. Every stage of our growth has been driven by a commitment to innovation and driving carbon emission reduction for current and future generations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new facility complements Re-Gen\u2019s existing Materials Recovery Facility and export operations, which together support clients across the UK, Ireland and Europe. Re-Gen is already a trusted partner to a range of local authorities and commercial waste providers seeking to improve recycling performance and reduce carbon impact.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Find out more about Re-Gen at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.regenwaste.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.regenwaste.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSign Up To Our Newsletter&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMost read today&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Re-Gen, one of Europe\u2019s leading recycling companies, has completed a \u00a320 million phase 1 investment in a new&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":599975,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3843],"tags":[1499,1500,1498,728,1501,12,70,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-599974","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-environment","8":"tag-armagh-city","9":"tag-breaking-news","10":"tag-county-armagh","11":"tag-environment","12":"tag-latest-news","13":"tag-news","14":"tag-science","15":"tag-sports","16":"tag-uk","17":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115629453500590737","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/599974","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=599974"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/599974\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/599975"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=599974"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=599974"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=599974"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
