This statistic represents the total number of waste-to-energy facilities in the United States from 2001 to 2018. In 2005, there were 89 waste-to-energy facilities in the country. The majority of facilities use a mass burn technology to combust municipal solid waste without pre-processing. A projection of the global waste to energy market can be found here.
