The AEB

AEB is a sustainable raw materials and energy company in the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area. AEB was privatised in 2014 and the City of Amsterdam remains its sole shareholder. Every day 400 people work together at AEB to create a clean society. Of the 1.4 million tonnes of waste that AEB processes every year, 99% is recycled into raw materials and energy. The heat from the incineration of the residual waste generates electricity for 320,000 households and provides heat for a growing number of households and businesses through a district heating network. We share our knowledge and expertise in a wide range of national and international partnerships, which has resulted in many innovations, including the technology for the high efficiency Waste Fired Power Plant.
