Australian Waste to Energy Forum 2017

The second Australian Waste to Energy Forum is a two-day event with a theme of ‘Waste to Energy — What it means in the Australian context’. It will bring industry and government professionals together to explore potential opportunities for the industry in Australia and what it might look like in the future.

Changes in government policy in recent years have created a renewed interest in waste to energy opportunities, with Australia now considered internationally to be a potential growth market. Due to Australia’s unique conditions it is widely accepted that the waste to energy market will be different here than in other countries. The forum will consider what has worked around the world and what we can learn from those experiences. What are the barriers and how can they be overcome? Who are the stakeholders, what are their roles and how will they influence the industry? How does the plan for future energy requirements influence the development of a waste to energy industry in Australia?
