Waste disposal, reducing landfill, energy roduction/independence and the minimisation of pollution are key challenges that must be addressed now for a secure future.

Each year UK households, commerce and industry combined generate about 100 million tonnes of waste. Most of this currently ends up in landfill, where biodegradable waste generates methane, a powerful greenhouse gas. A lot of much valuable energy is used up in making new products which are later disposed of, also contributing to climate change. Effective waste management and recycling is just part of a viable solution in combating these issues. The generation of electrical energy from waste destined for landfill complements this with benefits to all.

The cost of disposing of commercial waste and Landfill Tax is rising considerably each year (with Landfill Tax rising to £56 per tonne by 2011). As of October 2008, the European Landfill Directive has meant that waste cannot be sent directly to landfill and must be recycled prior to its ultimate disposal.
The UK Government is proposing that 5% of UK electricity needs should be met by utilising such renewable energy sources as energy from waste by the end of 2003 and 10% by 2010, as long as the cost to consumers is acceptable.

Our world has finite resources and with unparalleled population growth and a continued demand for electrical energy we need to change the way in which developed societies consume energy and materials and dispose of waste.

Renewable sources of energy can make an important contribution to securing sustainable and diverse energy supplies and are therefore an essential element of a cost-effective climate change programme.

Developing renewable Energy from Waste plants throughout the UK is the ideal solution.
