Regenerative Energie
New directives of the European Union will require operators of waste-to-energy (WTE) plants to report the amount of CO2 that is generated through the combustion of fossil materials.
Up to now the standard method to determine fossil CO2 emissions is sorting of wastes into defined fractions of fossil and biogenic waste components and determining the carbon content of these fractions. From this the amount of CO2 from fossil sources can be calculated. This practice is labor and cost intensive. Therefore it is usually carried out only once a year which provides only a momentum analysis of limited significance. This paper proposes a new method that calculates the fossil CO2 emissions from waste based on standard data derived routinely from the WTE plant. The advantages are: known uncertainty range of the result, temporal resolution of the result down to daily mean values, low implementation and virtually no permanent costs. An example for the implementation of the method to an Austrian WTE plant is given.

In the context of the European Climate Law (EU) 2021/1119), the Governance Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 and the Nature Restoration Regulation (EU) 2024/1991, the KAnG came into force on July 1, 2024.
Transformatives Klimarecht: Raum, Zeit, Gesellschaft

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
