Global Waste-To-Energy (WtE) Market Outlook and Forecast 2019-2027 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Global Waste-To-Energy (WTE) Market 2019-2027" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

After analyzing the global waste-to-energy market in detail, the analyst has arrived upon the conclusion that the industry is set to display an upward trend, with 6.09% of CAGR in terms of revenue for the forecast years of 2019 to 2027.

The trend of producing reusable energy from waste has gained traction throughout the world. The world is facing a serious problem of increased waste generation. Overfilled landfills have led the world to shift its focus towards using waste for generating power. Waste-to-energy or WtE is an efficient solution provided for handling municipal waste. The commercialization of several WTE technologies has garnered growing interest towards the development of WtE projects, with increased investments.

The rising demand for energy & the need for energy security, considerable investments in new waste-to-energy projects, rapid rates of industrialization & urbanization, and the decrease in the number of landfills are the factors responsible for driving the waste-to-energy market. Moreover, the depletion of conventional energy resources and the emergence of new technologies, are excellent opportunities for the market to reach its projected growth.

However, the high costs involved in setting up WtE plants, strict environmental guidelines, availability of alternative technologies, are factors restraining the market growth. In addition, technological challenges and opposition from environmental groups & local communities are further creating hurdles for the growth of the waste-to-energy market.

Regional Outlook

The market for waste-to-energy spans across various regions, such as North America, the Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. The APAC market for waste-to-energy is growing the fastest at the global scale. The growing demand for energy and the aim of reducing dependence on fossil fuels have resulted in the growth of the waste-to-energy market in the countries of India and China. The rapid rates of industrialization & urbanization in these countries pose grave challenges for waste management for their governments.

The growing population has also been putting pressure on land space, prompting municipalities and governments across these countries to reduce landfill waste. Waste generation in the Asia-Pacific is expected to increase, owing to the growth in the GDP, and would force the governments to consider the implementation of waste-to-energy technologies and waste management sectors. Emerging economies in the Asia-Pacific serve as driving factors for the energy market, globally, and thus, manufacturers in the region have started to invest heavily in research & development of low-cost WtE technologies.
