This paper gives an overview of waste to energy technologies, discusses barriers to its wider adoption in developing countries, and helps researchers and decision-makers to make informed decisions on the feasibility of WtE as a pathway for sustainable waste management and renewable energy generation.
This study aims to determine the viability of electricity generation from municipal solid waste in Ndola, Zambia, and finds that the most suitable technology is biomethanation.
This paper reviews the potential for the generation of modern energy from organic waste in Madagascar, and provides recommendations to accelerate progress.
This report presents the results of a survey undertaken to investigate the current status of gender equality in the biogas sector, and compares these with a baseline survey conducted in 2012.
This guide explains how cities can develop energy transition roadmaps that can create platforms for collaboration with other stakeholders and attract investment.
This guidance note outlines how cities can tap into a wide array of proven technologies, policies, and financing mechanisms to improve energy efficiency and capture cost-effective energy savings in buildings.
Water infrastructure is among the biggest users of electricity in many municipalities. This policy brief makes recommendations to government (national, provincial and local) for cleaner energy (renewable energy and energy efficiency) policies related to municipal waterworks and their operations.
This step-by-step guide suggests the key elements that municipal officials need to consider to implement clean energy/energy efficiency projects in waterworks or other municipal operations. It provides information on developing strategies, formulating plans, providing adequate capacity and mobilising resources for successful origination and implementation of a project.
