Enevo (Enevo Oy in Finland) is a Finnish provider of wireless sensor networks that measure and forecast fill-levels of waste containers in order to optimize collection intervals and routes based on this data. The underlaying idea is that using optimized routes waste trucks can drive less while picking up more trash. The company estimates that it can reduce waste collection costs by up to 30%.[3]
Enevo was founded in 2010 and is led by Fredrik Kekäläinen and Johan Engström.
