The role of energy recovery from wastes in the decarbonization efforts of the EU power sector Constantinos S. Psomopoulos, Kyriaki Kiskira, Konstantinos Kalkanis, Helen C. Leligou, Nickolas J. Themelis,
Over the last few years, global energy demand has risen, and this trend is expected to continue. Almost all European Union (EU) countries are suffering from a shortage of energy services. Annually, EU fossil fuel energy production falls; for example, in 2014, gas production fell by 11.2% compared to 2013. Energy imports, especially natural gas, have increased as a result of lower energy output. The EU is still heavily reliant on fossil fuel imports (oil and gas), and the cost of EU energy imports in 2017 increased by 26% (€266 billion).

District Heating Supply from Landfill Gas in the Vaihingen District of Gündelbach, Germany
Nowadays everyone is aware of this fact: fossil fuels are limited and must be replaced by regenerative alternatives. This is also the reason for the lighthouse project Gündelbach district heating supply. The district was converted into a bioenergy village in which a large proportion of the inhabitants heat with district heating instead of oil.

WeiterGeben.org: Alternatives for the Unnecessary Disposal of Old School Furniture
In Germany every year an unbelievable amount of 100 million pieces of furniture is sorted out, most of which are sent to bulky waste and almost always end up getting burnt. This happens, although many goods are still in a good condition. The predominantly unnecessary disposal of waste mainly applies to private furniture, but also includes office and school equipment.

Mechanical-biological treatment plant (MBT) in Granada, Spain
The plant Ecocentral Granada was a renovation and an expansion of the old sorting and composting plant Loma de Manzanares. It is a hybrid plant, as it is able to process, with the same equipment and on different shifts, the organic fraction and the packaging waste. The plant was designed to achieve a capacity of 450.000 tons organic waste per year. In 2015 this plant processed 356.000 tons of organic waste and 8.100 tons of packaging waste.
