Environmental services
Hera provides refuse collection and street cleaning environmental services and manages the treatment plants in all the municipalities in which it operates.
Numerous environmental projects have been put in place over the years. Each one can be traced back to
the pillars on which our Group strategy is based: sustainability, circular economy, efficient use of resources.
Among these, examples of excellence include Aliplast, a leader in the collection and recycling of plastic waste,
the Biomethane plant in Sant'Agata Bolognese, which produces 6.5 million m 3 of 100% renewable fuel per year,
and our 9 waste- to-energy plants, capable of "enhancing" the heat produced
for the benefit of the territory.
The Hera Group manages the Waste drop-off points or collection sites, places available to all members of the community where different types of waste can be brought. Waste drop-off points are in addition to the roadside collection services and represent the most sustainable option with the least environmental impact for the collection of urban waste. The collected materials are sent mainly to material recovery, where not technically possible, to energy recovery or controlled disposal.
In order to continue to innovate, we set ourselves increasingly ambitious goals by creating projects
that look further and further away.
