In 2023, Germany led European non-renewable municipal waste gross heat production with 28.86 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent, followed by Sweden with 19.99, and France with 12.11. Notable growth was observed in Lithuania, showing a 43.08% increase. Other significant increases were in Austria (6.41%) and Sweden (5.32%). Most other countries showed modest growth, while Luxembourg remained stable. Slovakia had a 4.87% increase. The United Kingdom had a minor growth of 1.27% while Hungary showed one of the higher variances at 7.13%. Over the five years ending in 2023, the compound annual growth rate has varied, indicating diverse growth and potential future shifts.
Future trends to watch include increasing waste-to-energy technologies likely driving growth in municipal non-renewable waste heat production. Europe's continuous effort towards sustainability and regulatory changes could either boost or restrain reliance on non-renewable sources, affecting production shares across different countries.
