In 2023, the UK's non-renewable industrial waste gross electricity production stood at a slightly lower level compared to the forecasts for 2024-2028. From 2024 onwards, there is a gradual increase in production, starting at 135.14 and reaching 148.11 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent by 2028. The year-on-year percentage growth highlights a steady upward trend, indicative of moderate positive growth in leveraging non-renewable industrial waste for electricity over this period.

Future trends to watch for:

Technological advancements in waste-to-energy processes could further boost efficiency and output.
Government policies and environmental regulations may impact the growth trajectory, potentially favoring renewable sources over non-renewable waste.
Market demand for sustainable energy sources could shift investments and operational strategies towards more eco-friendly alternatives.
