Despite the massive expansion of the global waste to energy industry from the year 2010 to 2018, hundreds of tons of waste ends up in the unsanitary landfills. For every ton of waste landfilled, there is an increase of 1.3 tons in greenhouse gas emissions in the form of carbon dioxide. To avoid wastage of the natural resources and the reduction in the landfill emissions, the waste should be treated in a more sustainable way with the help of waste to energy technology to generate energy from the waste.
Decreasing number of sanitary waste disposal landfills coupled with the increasing volume of waste is supporting the growth of using waste to energy technology at an increasing rate across the globe. Advanced waste to energy technologies, such as pyrolysis, and anaerobic digestion are expected to register strong growth in the waste to energy industry.

Executive Summary
Energy being the core necessity of various end use industries such as residential, commercial, industrial, electric power, and transportation, has considerable environmental impacts.
As per the International Energy Outlook 2017, the global energy consumption is expected to grow by 50% between the year 2010 and 2040, along with the increasing use of fossil fuels.Around 29 countries globally fulfil more than 90% of their energy requirements from fossil fuels.
As per the data by Eurostat, the population of Europe has increased by more than 3 million people from the year 2015 to 2017, and urbanization in most of its countries is also increasing. These factors have led to the rise in energy demand from the region.
Since the fossil fuels were formed over millions of years by decomposing carbon-based life forms, these resources are entirely non-renewable.Moreover, these fossil fuels are the origin of greenhouse gases and carbon emissions, which further lead to global warming.
As per the data by Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the global carbon dioxide emissions from fuel combustion increased from 20.623 billion tons in 1990 to 32.381 billion tons in 2014. Thus, the shift from fossil fuels to the renewable and clean sources of energy is of utmost importance for effectively dealing with climate change and its effects.
One key resort to these concerns is use of waste disposed globally to generate electricity, heat, and transport fuels, among others.The treatment of waste that would otherwise have been sent to landfills, in order to generate energy, reduces the amount of greenhouse gases and carbon emissions released into the atmosphere.
This also reduces the dependency on energy imports. The conversion of waste to energy has progressed from the basic collection and disposal of waste to the technology driven treatment systems used to convert waste.
Waste to energy is the process of generating energy in the form of electricity/heat with the treatment of the waste generated with several technologies such as thermo chemical and bio chemical. The depletion of fossil fuels, and the hazards of improper waste management, have led to the expansion of waste to energy facilities substantially over the last ten years.
The Europe waste to energy market is projected to grow from $XX billion in the year 2018 to $21.99 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2023. Europe has significantly been the leading the market in the waste to energy technologies. The region has witnessed a strong growth in terms of waste to energy capacities since 2008 The economy of the region and the European Union's legislation are the major factors driving the growth of the market. The Europe waste to energy market is dominated by Germany in the year 2018. However, during the forecast period, the U.K. is expected to display the highest growth rate. Germany is one of the top countries in the best waste to energy technologies used in the energy generation process, recording significant levels of e-waste recovery and exploring new business opportunities.
From the year 2010, the countries in the region have significantly shifted their focus with respect to municipal waste disposal methods to prevention and recycling. Although municipal waste represents only around 10% of total waste generated in the region, it is important to understand that prevention of this waste has the potential to reduce the environmental impact not only during the waste conversion phase but also through the life cycle of the products consumed.
As per the industry experts, the recent trends in the Europe region demonstrate that this is a suitable time to enter into new growth opportunities by setting up the waste to energy projects across the region. The leading countries such as Denmark, France and Germany and recent market entrants such as Poland in the waste to energy market are expected to see major technological advancements irrespective of the regulatory and the cultural challenges.
The countries which have huge potential but limited land availability such as Poland, are focusing on the development of new waste to energy technologies.Waste to energy is one of the growing green energy technology segments in the region.
The presence of several high potential sites in the region, supporting initiatives by the government, regulations, and increasing foreign investment are some of the factors driving the growth of the market in the region.
