Veolia, the world leader in delivering environmental services in water, waste and energy, has received the top ranking in an annual listing of the largest U.S. environmental services companies compiled by Engineering News Record, a prominent industry trade publication.
Ranked according to reported revenue, Veolia emerged as number one in the publication’s annual list of the “Top 200 Environmental Firms” in the U.S. in numerous market segments, including:
- Hazardous Waste Management
- Water Treatment/Supply
- Wastewater Treatment
Veolia’s top ranking in these categories affirms its status as the leader in the ecological transformation while helping industrial and municipal customers address their environmental and sustainability challenges in energy, water and waste. With over 10,000 employees serving thousands of customers in the industrial, municipal and commercial sectors, Veolia is improving clients' energy efficiency, better managing their water and wastewater and recovering value from their waste. In the company's most recent sustainability report, Veolia reported helping customers avoid 465 kTons of carbon dioxide equivalent, treating 427 billion gallons of wastewater and safely processing 1.8 million tons of hazardous waste. In a rapidly changing world, Veolia commits unparalleled resources to bring greater environmental security and stability to communities and customers to ensure a brighter future.
Veolia has set strong plans for further growth in the U.S. as part of the company’s GreenUp strategy, an ambitious three-year roadmap to accelerate the deployment of affordable, replicable solutions that depollute, decarbonize and regenerate resources. Over the last year the company has taken bold steps to execute that strategy through the acquisition of leading companies in the hazardous waste treatment and energy service industries: Ingenium, New England MedWaste, New England Disposal Technologies and Icetec.
“Being named once again as the leading environmental firm in the U.S. is a great honor and a validation of the strategic work we are doing to grow our business in North America through our Green Up strategy,” said Nadége Petit, President and CEO of Veolia in North America. “The U.S. environmental service market is core to Veolia’s growth strategy, driven by increases in manufacturing production for semiconductors, electronics, life saving pharmaceuticals and the growth in demand for data center capacity.”
