European Waste-to-Energy Cities

European Waste-to-Energy (WTE) cities are urban areas that effectively manage waste by converting non-recyclable waste into energy through specialized plants. These facilities reduce landfill use and generate electricity or heat, helping cities lower greenhouse gas emissions. Countries like Sweden, Denmark, and the Netherlands have advanced WTE systems, integrating them into sustainable urban planning. This approach balances waste reduction, energy production, and environmental protection, making cities more resilient and environmentally friendly while managing growing waste demands responsibly.
