Introduction to Phoenix Energy

Phoenix Energy Australia is a specialist privately owned Australian Waste to Energy (WtE) Project development company.

  • Established in 2009, Phoenix Energy develops WtE projects, which are located in Australia, from concept through to Financial Close either directly or on behalf of Public or Private organisations.
  • We don’t own technologies or licenses and are thus able to independently develop a project by selecting the best technologies, builders, operators and funding models that optimise the outcome for the project stakeholders.
  • We engage resources that have extensive, demonstrable experience applicable to the project, there are no ‘L’ plates!
  • We establish all of the project requirements, from location, planning and environmental approvals, acquisition of waste supply contracts, key contractors, grid connection, community engagement, funding, legal, commercial etc…..effectively a one stop shop.

Phoenix Energy’s clear passion is to establish infrastructure that maximises the diversion of waste from landfill and to recover products and energy in the most efficient, safest and commercially viable way possible. We firmly believe that if we (as a community) generate waste today, then we need to deal with it today and not bury it in a hole that becomes a legacy for future generations.

Though Phoenix Energy is in the process of developing several projects across Australia our most notable recent success is the development of the first major Waste to Energy project in the nation to have commenced construction. Located in the City of Kwinana, 40km south of Perth, Western Australia, this project represents a significant breakthrough in achieving the desire to divert waste from landfill through the recovery of energy and other resources.  Click on the Projects tab to read more on this exciting development.
