Reloop and Zero Waste Europe, along with a coalition of 20 companies, trade associations and NGOs, are calling on the European Commission to include municipal waste incinerators in the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS).
This aligns with its mandate under Article 30(7) to assess this by July 2026, with a view to implementation in 2028.
We believe this is necessary to ensure the waste sector contributes meaningfully to Europe’s climate goals, without shifting waste to landfills.
