Utilising the large volumes of waste produced in cities and towns across the African continent is one of the major environmental and health challenges that developing Africa must solve. Urban growth in Africa continues to outpace the abilities of municipal authorities to meet the demands of urban populations. Waste is a by-product of human living and a continuous resource that can be harnessed to improve the quality of life of urban residents across the continent. Mendi works with city governments, municipalities and national power utility companies to develop Waste to Energy power plants. Mendi works with technology partners that offer incineration and gasification solutions.
