DUBLIN, Dec. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The “Waste to Energy (WtE) Market Report 2024-2034” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
Revenue for Waste-to-Energy (WtE) Market is forecast to surpass US$23.9 billion in 2024, with strong revenue growth through to 2034.
Exponential Growth in Global Population and Urbanisation Has Increased Waste Generation
The exponential growth in global population and urbanisation has led to a substantial surge in waste generation, necessitating advanced waste management solutions. Urban areas, in particular, face significant challenges in handling the escalating volumes of municipal solid waste. Waste to energy emerges as a critical market driver, offering a sustainable approach to address the mounting waste crisis. For instance, Tokyo, one of the world’s largest and most densely populated cities, generates approximately 12,500 tons of waste per day. To manage this colossal waste output efficiently, Tokyo has invested in waste to energy facilities, converting a substantial portion of its waste into electricity, thereby addressing both waste disposal challenges and contributing to the city’s energy needs.
Stringent Environmental Regulations
Governments worldwide are enacting stringent environmental regulations to combat climate change and promote sustainable practices. These regulations focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and encourage the adoption of cleaner energy alternatives, driving the waste to energy market. The European Union’s waste incineration directive exemplifies this trend. This directive establishes strict guidelines for the safe and environmentally responsible use of waste to energy technologies. For instance, countries like Germany have implemented advanced flue gas cleaning systems in waste to energy plants to comply with these regulations, ensuring that the environmental impact of waste incineration is minimised.
