The Netherlands leads in public sector investments in waste management by 2024, with a stable CAGR indicating consistent growth over the past five years. Italy also shows significant growth, reflecting a strategic emphasis on enhancing waste management capabilities. Notably, Portugal exhibits a strong year-on-year increase in 2023, suggesting a potential turnaround in its public sector waste management investments.
Key future trends to watch include increases in waste management investments owing to stricter environmental regulations, innovation in waste processing technologies, and a shift towards circular economy models in Europe. This will likely drive higher capital formation in countries with currently lower levels such as Slovenia and Estonia.
