– Waste-to-Energy projects convert solid waste into electricity or heat. – A crucial solution for managing India’s rising waste while generating power.
India’s Growing Need for WTE Projects
– India generates over 150,000 tonnes of solid waste daily. – WTE projects reduce landfill dependency and contribute to energy generation.
Key Technologies Driving WTE in India
– Incineration: Burning waste to produce energy. – Biogas Plants: Converting organic waste into methane for power.
– Government initiatives like Swachh Bharat Mission and Waste-to-Energy Policy boost sector growth. – Rising urbanization creates more opportunities for WTE adoption.
