Global Waste to Energy Report 2014/2015

The market for thermal treatment and energetic recovery of residual and other types of solid waste is growing continuously. Increasing waste amounts, shrinking landfill spaces in agglomerations and higher ecological standards stimulate this growth throughout the world.

Today, almost 2,200 WtE plants are active worldwide. They have a disposal capacity of around 270 million tons of waste per year. More than 200 thermal treatment plants with a capacity of over 60 million annual tons were constructed between 2009 and 2013. We estimate almost 500 new plants with a capacity of about 160 million annual tons to be constructed by 2023.
