According to Tara Garnett of the Food Climate Research network, Waitrose is using food waste and other biodegradable matter such as paper plates from 5 stores to feed an anaerobic digester. The process will produce methane which can generate electricity and a fertiliser for crops. If the pilot is a success, Waitrose plans to roll it out to other stores.
