The UK’s renewable municipal waste final consumption in industry is poised to steadily increase from 2024 to 2028, with forecasted growth culminating in 84.42 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent by 2028. As of 2023, the consumption stood at a slightly lower figure. The year-on-year growth rates between these years display a consistent upward trend. Over the entire period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a moderate but persistent expansion reflecting the sector's dedication to renewable energy.

Future trends to watch for include:

Advancements in waste-to-energy technology, enhancing efficiency and reducing emissions.
Policy incentives aimed at increasing renewable energy contributions from municipal waste.
Growing industrial demand for sustainable energy sources, potentially accelerating consumption growth.
