What's Next for Energy-from-Waste?

View descriptionShare

In this episode, which forms part of a special Powering Change mini-series, we look at the current energy-from-waste (EfW) market, flag the major opportunities and challenges, and consider what lies ahead.

Ashurst's 2024 Powering Change report shows that energy-from-waste is one of the core technologies of the energy transition, with 41% of surveyed G20 energy sector leaders currently investing or planning to invest in EfW. So, in this podcast episode, we pause to consider recent developments and the current state of the market.

We discuss how, in the UK’s maturing market, funders are adjusting their risk tolerance levels, and we explore how the Emissions Trading Scheme and other challenges are impacting the sector. We also cast our eyes overseas, to consider opportunities in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. And we discuss how the EfW industry may evolve in the years ahead.

This discussion features Ashurst partner Cameron Smith alongside two fellow experts on energy transition and infrastructure: Stefan Barrow and Andrew Howie. Stefan is a director in the infrastructure team at  MUFG ,. Andrew Howie is director of EfW Development at Encyclis.
