In Germany, the forecast for gross electricity production from non-renewable municipal waste shows a modest upward trend through 2028, starting from a value of 500.72 TTOE in 2024, reaching 502.38 TTOE by 2028. Comparatively, if 2023 had factual data at around these levels, the annual increase is minimal, hovering around 0.14% to 0.15% year-on-year. The CAGR over the next five years is also moderate, hinting at a steady but slow growth trajectory in this sector.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential regulations on waste-to-energy processes, as Germany intensifies its focus on sustainability and waste reduction.
Technological advancements enhancing efficiency in energy recovery from waste.
Policy shifts towards boosting renewable energy sources, affecting investment in non-renewable waste facilities.
