What role does waste incineration play in the circular economy and in the transition away from fossil fuels?
Sebastian Siewers, Head of Energy at EEW, talks about the contribution of waste-to-energy plants to the circular economy, and the energy system.
What you'll hear in this episode:
• The business model behind waste to energy: where the revenue comes from, what drives costs, and why CO2 is becoming a major factor.
• What grid flexibility means, why it has become more important than total energy supply, and how negative pricing hours in Germany have more than doubled since 2023.
• Why heat and steam are local infrastructure products and how German municipalities are starting to plan around them.
This is the second episode in "Incineration in the Circular Economy," a series sponsored by NEEW Ventures.
