India Waste-to-Energy Market Size Summary
The Indian waste-to-energy market is poised for growth, driven by increasing waste generation and supportive government policies aimed at addressing the waste management crisis. The market has rebounded to pre-pandemic levels after the setbacks caused by COVID-19. Despite concerns over the environmental impact of waste incineration, the adoption of advanced and sustainable techniques like fermentation and anaerobic digestion presents significant opportunities. Thermal technology, particularly incineration, is expected to dominate the market due to its cost-effectiveness and established presence in India. This technology effectively reduces waste volume and mass while recovering energy, minerals, and metals, making it a practical solution for the country's growing energy demands.
Rapid urbanization in India has led to a surge in waste generation, particularly in megacities, where space for waste disposal is becoming increasingly scarce. The country's waste-to-energy plants are seen as a viable solution to the impending waste management crisis, with a significant increase in the share of waste processed through these facilities. The market is characterized by fragmentation, with key players like A2z Group, Ecogreen Energy Pvt. Ltd, and Suez Group actively participating. Recent developments include the commencement of new plants and ongoing construction projects, which are expected to further bolster the market's growth trajectory during the forecast period.
