The South African National Energy Development Institute (SANEDI), in partnership with the DSI/NRF/CSIR South African Research Chair in Waste and Climate Change at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, has developed a Waste to Energy Roadmap for South Africa to contribute to the country’s Just Energy Transition with the aim to map the potential for insertion of waste to energy technology in South African municipalities. The South African Waste-to-Energy Roadmap identifies relevant technologies for the effective recovery of waste into biogas and energy, while mapping barriers and drivers for potential uptake at local level.
