Thermal Waste Treatment in Italy 2045
Italy is one of Europe’s largest waste markets, and one of its most dynamic markets for thermal waste treatment. Despite progress in separate collection and recycling, the country lacks capacity for the thermal treatment of residual waste. Large volumes are still landfilled, around 1.8 million tonnes per year are exported, and disposal costs are high, particularly in Central and South Italy.
At the same time, the market is changing. There is a large pipeline of Waste-to-Energy projects and landfills are being phased out in line with EU targets. In the early 2030s, waste incineration will also be integrated into the EU ETS.
In this study, ecoprog analyses the Italian market for thermal waste treatment, i.e. Waste-to-Energy plants and co-incineration in cement kilns, in detail. We project its development until 2045 in three scenarios, for Italy as a whole and for the macro regions of North, Central and South Italy.
The study Thermal Waste Treatment in Italy 2045 includes:
- An analysis of the current market: waste volumes, waste intensity, WtE plants and cement kilns, competition and gate fees
- Detailed profiles of all 20 Italian regions, covering ATO structures, regional waste management plans, treatment infrastructure, competition and known projects
- An analysis of the key market drivers – from population and waste generation to separate collection, exports and carbon pricing
- An overview of more than 20 WtE projects with a combined capacity of around 5 million tonnes per year
- A projection of waste volumes, disposal capacities, the disposal gap and gate fees until 2045 in three scenarios – for Italy and for the macro regions North, Central and South Italy
The study is available starting from 4,900.– € (plus VAT, if applicable). Customers of our w&b Monitor receive a discount starting from 600.– €. Preview our comprehensive report: download the free extract with the full Table of Contents and selected pages.
