Wastes and residues are a significant and underutilized set of feedstocks for renewable fuel and energy production.
The importance of the waste to energy philosophy
These resources are unlikely to diminish in volume in the near future, and it is a challenge to dispose of them properly due to the potential risk of land, water and air contamination.
However, these streams are the perfect allies in the global challenge of energy transition from fossil-fuel to renewable.
Unlike crop-based biofuel, waste and residue feedstocks are available without land-use change and therefore not competing in any way or form with the world’s food supply.
The revised Renewable Energy Directive (RED II) contains Annex IX which lists the feedstocks that are incentivized for the purposes of the EU’s transport emission reduction targets. All the raw materials from both parts of the list are in compliance with all the sustainability principles of the circular economy and waste hierarchy established in the Directive 2008/98/EC as well as with all the principles of the indirect land-use changes exposed in the Directive (EU) 2015/1513.
