From waste to resource: how biowaste can fuel the Green Deal
From waste to resource: how biowaste can fuel the Green Deal
18 November 2020Online Webinar
Waste can be a valuable resource. The benefits or applying the circular economy to bio-waste are, to mention a few: job creation, soil protection and improvement, resource savings, greenhouse gas emissions reductions and increase in renewable energy. With a proper framework in place, recovery of bio-waste will make the EU more resource-efficient.
This event will highlight the ways circular economy through the recovery of bio-waste can contribute to EU reaching the Green Deal goals. It will gather analysts, policy experts, academic experts, businesses and government representatives to give their views and insights.
A key use for biowaste is biogas, which can be a flexible and sustainable source of renewable energy. In many places in Europe, the full potential is still not being used. Biogas is a way to both provide new sustainable alternatives to sectors like agriculture and transport, and to include them in the circular economy.
Q:I have some reservations as to the issues "upscaling/large scale" production. My observation is that local ownership and short transportation routes make a more efficient system in the long run. It is also guarantees a more resilient system.
