@Asia Clean Energy Summit 2018
Good news from this year's ACEF just concluded in Manila.
Bambang Susantono,Vice-President, Knowledge Management and Sustainable Development, ADB announced that the bank is on track toward doubling it's annual climate finance to $6 billion by 2020, out of which $4 billion will be for greenhouse gas mitigation.
Waste-to-Energy can significantly contribute in two major ways:
1. Reducing the gigantic methane emissions of openly decaying municipal solid waste organics and biomass waste, with a greenhouse gas effect 21 times higher than CO2. WtE can turn the problem into renewable energy instead and provide public sanitation at the same time
2. Reducing GHG emission by substituting coal - abundantly used in the region's power plants, cement, ceramic and paper industry - with fuels processed from e.g.municipal solid waste, supporting to finance public sanitation
Recycling basically conserves the primary energy spent e.g. to turn base rock into ore and metal. Developers should structure their projects accordingly. Heinrich Seul, CBE
