Happy to have featured in the latest episode of the video series "To Net Zero With..." with other colleagues of the European Net Zero Alliance (ENZA).   Touching upon CEWEP's Waste-to-Energy (WtE) Climate Roadmap, I illustrated how the European WtE sector will help the EU to achieve #netzero.   While contributing to #circulareconomy and #sustainablewastemanagement, WtE also brings many benefits in an EU climate perspective. Significant CO2eq savings are delivered daily by WtE thanks to: ⚡ Fossil fuel substitution for the equivalent production of electricity and heat 🚚 Landfill diversion (avoiding disperse methane emissions, a greenhouse gas much more potent than CO2) and ♻ Metals recovery from bottom ash left after the incineration process.   In the future, the potential application of Carbon Capture Use and Storage (#ccus) to WtE plants could further reduce their carbon footprint with the possibility to even reach net negative CO2 emissions.   The European WtE sector is actively looking into #carboncapture and CEWEP currently counts around 60 active projects and initiatives on CCUS across WtE plants in Europe. The momentum is growing with many more feasibility studies, pilots etc.   Policy support is still crucial and it's good to see the latest developments in EU legislation for CCUS deployment.

As we enter the new year, Green Rock Energy Partners is pleased to share Co-founder and Managing Partner Cody Myers’ outlook for 2024, as featured in Bioenergy Insight. Assessing both the hurdles and opportunities in the sector, Cody highlights the resilience and adaptability of the bioenergy industry in the face of challenges like inflation and supply chain complexities: “Even amidst the backdrop of persistently challenging macroeconomic conditions, our optimism for the upcoming year is anchored in the integration of existing technological advancements and important growth within the industry’s talent pool.” Cody explains, “Our pool of human capital is increasingly able to meet the weighty expectations of the energy transition. The growing proficiency, coupled with technology integration, will contribute to an exponential growth of skills and knowledge and will add immense value to the industry.” Indeed, Cody’s perspective underscores Green Rock’s belief in the potential of bioenergy as a sustainable energy solution, and our commitment to leading and innovating within the industry, leveraging both human capital and technological advancements.   We invite you to read the full article for a comprehensive view of what 2024 holds for the bioenergy sector, available at the link below:

Viridi RNG President & Chief Operating Officer Chet Benham was recently featured in Bioenergy Insight, sharing his market outlook for 2024. Reflecting on the impressive year that was 2023 and favorable tailwinds ahead, Chet shares his expectations for continued momentum throughout 2024. In addition to tax incentives from the Inflation Reduction Act and the Clean Fuel Production Tax Credits, the rise in D3 RIN credit prices, alongside a solid expansion of voluntary buyers, translate to a promising RNG landscape. And yet, despite this overall positive outlook, Chet cautions industry players against overreliance on the status quo: “Up to this point, RNG projects have relied heavily on credits and regulations for viability. However, as we look ahead, our team believes that the industry’s future will center on projects that are developed, built, and operated in ways that deliver sustainable, consistent cash flows and support the broader energy transition, regardless of the regulatory or incentive environment.” After all, “Any industry that thrives over the long-term must evolve – and for tomorrow’s RNG leaders, the year ahead will be squarely focused on capturing the vast opportunity before us right now,” Chet writes.
