The waste management sector bears an essential role in the EU’s ambition to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, the group explained in a statement in early February. Alternatively, the waste would be transported outside the EU ETS zone, potentially shipped to countries with less stringent environmental standards.

After all, a substantial fraction of global carbon emissions arise from the production, transportation, and consumption of fossil fuels. Hydrogen is increasingly being viewed as an important tool for reducing carbon emissions, because the use of hydrogen for energy generates no direct carbon dioxide emissions.
