ETS, carbon pricing and energy markets: what impact will these have on waste to energy revenue streams ?Adrian Judge, Director, Tolvik ConsultingRichard Howard, Research Director, Aurora Energy Research
The old certainties of gate fees being a primary revenue source for energy from waste plants are disappearing – the new reality will see waste to energy plants operating in a more volatile and less controllable environment of carbon pricing and energy markets. What does this mean for the waste to energy sector? Adrian Judge and Richard Howard consider capacity, volume, carbon pricing and energy markets to explore the implications for the waste to energy sector.

Leaders of some of the UK and Europe's top waste management and waste to energy companies explore the critical challenges, changes and opportunities which their organisations are facing. They will discuss topics such as -
How are you balancing the existential factors of energy markets, net zero goals and circular economy policies with current waste to energy markets and operations? How do you see feedstock changing over the short and medium term and what impact will this have on your business? Going forward, will carbon be the problem or the opportunity and how will this play out across fleets of varying plants? Where do you see growth in the medium term, and what will the waste to energy industry look like in the next 10 – 15 years? |
