Divert breaks ground on “first-of-its-kind” renewable energy facility

Divert, Inc., an impact technology company on a mission to "Protect the Value of Food™", has announced the ground-breaking on its Integrated Diversion & Energy Facility in Longview, Washington in the US, the first-of-its-kind in the state.

The new facility will have the capacity to process 100,000 tons of wasted food a year from Washington and Oregon into carbon-negative renewable energy, bringing the region closer to its goals to reduce wasted food and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, according to Divert.

The 66,000-square-foot facility will provide companies with actionable data to take preventative steps to waste less and donate more food that is still edible.
