As of 2023, Italy's renewable municipal waste energy supply stood at 34.51 thousand terajoules. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline in supply, dropping from 34.51 thousand terajoules in 2024 to 34.2 thousand terajoules in 2028. The year-on-year variation shows a consistent decrease at about 0.2% annually over this period.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Technological advancements that could potentially increase the efficiency and output of energy from municipal waste.
- Policy changes at the government level promoting further investments in renewable energy and waste-to-energy initiatives.
- Growing environmental awareness potentially leading to increased support and funding for waste-to-energy projects.
