The company has officially opened four recycling and RNG projects across the country as part of its $3 billion investment plan for 2026.
Recycling company WM has announced the openings for four recycling and renewable natural gas (RNG) projects across the United States.
The facilities are part of the company's plans to invest about $3 billion in its sustainability growth strategy from 2022-2026. Expected results involve 39 new or upgraded recycling facilities and 20 new owned RNG facilities.
"We are meeting our customers' needs today and investing in communities for the long term through our planned growth in recycling and renewable energy infrastructure," said Jim Fish, president and chief executive officer, WM.
Throughout April, the company will have grand opening events for newly upgraded recycling facilities near Baltimore and in Central Texas, as well as new RNG facilities in the Chicago and Philadelphia areas.
So far, WM has completed eight out of 20 planned RNG sites and 27 out of 39 planned recycling facilities and intends to open additional sites in 2025 as part of its enterprise-wide investment plans.
