The Energy from Waste industry is changing fast, thanks to changes in government funding and a push for more sustainable regulations. In response to these changes, interest in waste-based fuels has been growing over the past few years, powered by incentives to reduce carbon emissions and reach net-zero targets.

With this in mind, this year's Energy from Waste conference will feature a range of presentations highlighting opportunities for waste to fuels, with insight from Department of Transport, Hitachi Zosen Inova and Westminster City Council:
