In 2023, Germany and the United Kingdom were leading in non-renewable waste gross electricity production. Germany experienced a slight decline, while the UK showed a notable growth of over 5%. Poland saw a substantial increase of nearly 9%, Lithuania and Slovakia experienced significant growth, with Slovakia almost doubling. Most other countries saw modest changes, with some slight decreases in production, like France and Spain. Over the last five years, many countries have experienced slight declines, signaling a general shift towards more sustainable energy sources.
Looking forward, it is crucial to watch the potential shift towards renewable sources in countries currently relying on non-renewable waste. The continued increase in Poland, Lithuania, and Slovakia may indicate strategic developments in waste-to-energy initiatives. Additionally, policies aimed at reducing carbon footprints might accelerate the transition to more sustainable energy alternatives, impacting non-renewable waste electricity production negatively.
