Market Overview

The process of converting different kinds of waste materials into usable forms of energy is known as waste to energy. Several technologies, including pyrolysis, gasification, anaerobic digestion, and incineration, are used in this process to recover energy from waste streams that would otherwise pollute the environment or wind up in landfills. It uses a variety of technologies to reduce the amount of waste going to landfills and transform non-recyclable waste into forms of usable energy. Furthermore, the demand for efficient waste management solutions is created by several factors, including the increasing amount of waste generated globally as a result of urbanization and population in Japan. Energy waste is becoming a more viable option for landfills due to growing environmental concerns and the need to cut greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the Japan waste-to-energy market has been driven by elements like industrialization, economic growth, and a growing emphasis on energy sources other than fossil fuels. In addition, future waste-to-energy market growth in Japan is anticipated to be greatly facilitated by increased investments in research and development related to aerobic and anaerobic digestion to guarantee dependability on environmental impacts.

Driving Factors

Growing waste production, environmental risks, and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are the outcomes of growing industrialization and urbanization coupled with economic growth. Along with changes in people's lifestyles, there has also been a significant increase in the commercial and residential waste era. To achieve the transition to a sustainable energy ecosystem, energy waste is sometimes the only choice for end-of-life waste treatment. It can also be used as a clean demand response option, an energy source to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and a design consideration for eco-industrial parks. However, to lower the harmful emissions from waste-to-energy conversion, Japan is concentrating on developing its incineration technologies, which is anticipated to propel the Japanese market growth during the forecast period.

Restraining Factors

Stricter rules and goals have been put in place by governments and environmental organizations in different parts of the Japan to lessen landfill waste and encourage environmentally friendly waste management techniques. Waste-to-energy technologies have become more popular as a practical way to manage waste and produce renewable energy as a result of these regulations.

Market Segment

• In 2022, the thermal segment accounted for the largest revenue share over the forecast period.

Based on technology, the Japan waste-to-energy market is segmented into physical, thermal, and biological. Among these, the thermal segment has the largest revenue share over the forecast period. By lowering the quantity of MSW disposed of in landfills, thermal treatment can extend the life of already existing landfills. Thermal treatment plants require comparatively less land than landfills. Furthermore, leachates or emissions of methane are not produced by thermal treatment facilities.

• In 2022, the electricity segment is expected to hold the largest share of the Japan waste-to-energy market during the forecast period.          

Based on the application, the Japan waste-to-energy market is classified into electricity and heat. Among these, the electricity segment is expected to hold the largest share of the Japan waste-to-energy market during the forecast period. The capacity of waste-to-energy facilities to produce electricity from waste and the rising worldwide demand for electricity. The need to lessen reliance on fossil fuels and the increasing emphasis on renewable energy sources are what are driving the dominance of the electricity segment. The notable market share of the electricity segment in the WtE market is also a result of government incentives and supportive policies supporting renewable energy.
