What’s Driving Change -

Policy Innovation Driving Circular Energy Economy - A unique and powerful driver in the United States waste-to-energy (WtE) market is the integration of circular economy principles at both federal and state levels. These policies push municipalities and the private sector to recover as much value as possible from waste by incentivizing landfill diversion, energy-from-waste projects, and partnerships for resource reuse. This regulatory momentum not only reduces landfill volume but also unlocks new funding avenues for WtE technologies, making it a central pillar of the U.S. shift toward sustainable urban infrastructure.​

Challenges and Market Constraints -

High-Cost Barriers Curtail Market Expansion - One of the most challenging yet less-discussed issues for the WtE market is its high capital and operational costs. Advanced emission-control systems, expensive boiler upgrades, and regulatory compliance requirements drive up both initial investments and ongoing expenses. These significant financial barriers particularly limit the entry of small and mid-sized operators and often slow expansion unless strong government incentives or private-public partnerships are present.​
