Energy from Waste across Europe - Current Statistics and Trends (Technical Paper)
By Pablo Perez-Reigosa
There are 420 Waste-to-Energy (WtE) plants across Europe that thermally treat household and comparable waste to generate electricity and heat (CEWEP 2010). The purpose of this paper is to present a high-level view of the statistics and trends emerging from the management and treatment of wastes in Europe and to provide information for the role of Waste-to-Energy plants in the overall management of wastes.
