Waste-to-Energy
On 12th December 2016, the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) published a report “Towards a better exploitation of the technical potential of waste-to-energy“.
This report presents all available waste management treatment options providing energy from waste in the EU for various waste streams. It assesses each process, and provides an analysis of opportunities ahead and possible evolutions for these technologies.
This study was conducted in order to gather information in the context of drafting of the Waste-to-Energy communication.
