WCW’s Clean & Green Sustainability: The Next Generation of Progress
This bold project began in the design phase in 2021, is estimated to be complete by 2024, and aims to reduce WCW’s energy consumption by 93%. Significant improvements to operational efficiencies include upgrading equipment and infrastructure at WCW’s Water Quality & Resource Recovery Plant (The Plant).
In 2023 and 2024, the installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) arrays will be installed at various WCW locations. A new microgrid will also be installed to provide backup power to our plant operations. The project also allows WCW to move to a thermal drying system, which will reduce the amount of sludge sent to a landfill and significantly lower WCW’s GHG emissions. During the project, the construction of an additional Equalization Basin allows WCW to manage the influx of water during mega-storms and adapt to the effects climate change.
