The initiative focuses on climate mitigation, adaptation, and resiliency to protect public health, maintain quality of life, and support job creation and economic development.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseCo-op-300x176.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"176\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-119115\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseCo-op-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseCo-op-150x88.jpg 150w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseCo-op.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Electric Works is one of a growing number of establishments to join the Grease Co-Op, a City Utilities program to remove the greasy byproducts of food preparation and dispose of them in an environmentally sound way. The fats, oils and grease harvested by the Co-Op are then transformed into energy-efficient fuel to power the City&#8217;s Water Pollution Control Plant and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, completing the circle of sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Part of the philosophy of Electric Works since its inception has been sustainability. We modernized and refurbished a historic landmark, making it more environmentally friendly in our efforts to reinvigorate the campus,&#8221; said Katy Silliman, Senior Experience Director for Electric Works and Union Street Market. &#8220;Our Union Street Market&#8217;s participation in the Grease Co-op is another step in our commitment to sustainability.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This initiative demonstrates what we can achieve when we work together for the common good of our community. We&#8217;re proud of our local restaurants&#8217; commitment to a greener Fort Wayne,&#8221; said Mayor Henry. &#8220;We\u2019re turning challenges into opportunities and making our City more resilient and competitive for the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The environmentally sound disposal of grease is a major issue for those in the food industry. The Grease Co-Op establishes a regular maintenance program with restaurants to manage their collection systems that gather fats, oils and grease. A monthly fee covers all aspects of collecting the grease, along with cleaning and maintaining the restaurants&#8217; grease interceptors. The Co-Op ensures the process is environmentally friendly and keeps the clog-inducing waste out of pipes where it can cause blockages and back-ups.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nearly every week, a restaurant somewhere in our country has a sewer back-up issue caused by grease build-up, even closing some restaurants temporarily,&#8221; said Jodi Leamon, Grease Co-Op Program Manager. &#8220;Juggling the countless ingredients to make for the perfect dining experience doesn&#8217;t have to include monitoring the grease interceptor, not when the affordable Grease Co-Op can remove the offenders. The best part is it is a tangible demonstration of their commitment to becoming an eco-friendly restaurant.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-119116\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy-768x573.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy-150x112.jpg 150w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy-485x360.jpg 485w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy-696x519.jpg 696w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy-563x420.jpg 563w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy-265x198.jpg 265w, https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tGreaseToEnergy.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For Fort Wayne, the program offers further sustainability benefits by using the grease from the interceptor to create a renewable energy source at the wastewater treatment plant, further reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The Co-Op keeps waste out of our pipes, minimizes the chance for sewer back-ups and contributes to a more sustainable energy future that aligns with Sustaining Fort Wayne.<\/p>\n<p>The City is working towards a cleaner and greener future through Sustaining Fort Wayne while fostering collaborations with local businesses and residents to create a more resilient and environmentally responsible community.<\/p>\n<p>Restaurants interested in saving money and reducing the complexities of managing a grease interceptor can contact City Utilities at grease@cityoffortwayne.org or 427-2724.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sustainingfortwayne.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Click here for more information on Sustaining Fort Wayne<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em><strong>Please note<\/strong>: All images included in this post were provided by Fort Wayne City Utilities<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/71709.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Mayor Tom Henry announces call for referendum vote on the gaming issue during a press conference on February 27, 2009.\"\n\t\t\tclass='thickbox' rel='eb3c7405501ea7378ddc19602cec9bb5' data-image-id=\"199\" data-src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/71709.jpg\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/thumbs\/thumbs_71709.jpg\" data-title=\"2009\/02\/27: Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry\" data-description=\"Mayor Tom Henry announces call for referendum vote on the gaming issue during a press conference on February 27, 2009.\">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"2009\/02\/27: Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"2009\/02\/27: Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"199\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/thumbs\/thumbs_71709.jpg\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/71710.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Mayor Tom Henry shakes hands with Allen County Councilman Paul Moss after the press conference announcing his decision to seek a referendum vote on the gaming issue.
