Waste to Value

Continuous Clean Power to Accelerate Waste-to-Hydrogen Capabilities

The Challenge

Global hydrogen demand is scaling rapidly — reaching 97 million tonnes in 2023, and projected to surge to:

• 179.9 million tonnes by 2030
• Over 500 million tonnes by 2070

The growth is fuelled by emerging applications in heavy industry, long-distance transport, and energy storage. Policymakers are responding — for example, the EU aims to secure 20 million tonnes of clean hydrogen demand by 2030.

Averaged across different sources, the emissions are 7.5-12 tonnes of CO2 per tonne of hydrogen produced.

Among production pathways, Waste-to-Hydrogen stands out as a dual-impact solution — converting waste into clean fuel while advancing circular economy principles.

⚠️ Barriers Hindering Scale-Up

Despite its promise, Waste-to-Hydrogen faces systemic hurdles:

• 🚚 High costs of EV-based waste transport, driven by frequent charging and heavy-duty truck usage
• 🌤️ Intermittent renewables misaligned with consistent hydrogen production needs
• 💸 Electricity costs ≥60% of operational expenditure, exacerbated by market volatility
• 🌱 Land-use conflicts limiting renewable infrastructure siting near processing facilities
• 🧊 Storage dependencies, with energy availability often mismatched to hydrogen demand

Though biogenic waste-derived hydrogen offers superior carbon benefits compared to solar-powered alternatives (which displace carbon-absorbing land), its value hinges on access to reliable, green electricity. With Biochar as a byproduct, Waste to Hydrogen can rejuvenate lands as opposed to losing lands for certain types of "green projects".

Continuous Clean Power to Accelerate Waste-to-Ammonia Capabilities

The Challenge

Global ammonia demand is on a steep upward trajectory — forecasted to reach:

• 470 million metric tons by 2050
• With shipping fuel demand alone accounting for 182 million metric tons

This surge reflects ammonia's rising role as a low-carbon marine fuel alongside its traditional use in agriculture and industrial processing. Yet conventional ammonia production remains carbon-intensive, with life cycle emissions estimated at 2.6 tonnes of CO₂ per tonne of ammonia.

Enter Waste-to-Ammonia — a circular pathway that transforms waste into clean fuel, with biochar byproduct enabling land rejuvenation rather than displacement, as seen in some conventional “green” developments.

⚠️ Barriers Hindering Scale-Up

Despite its dual climate and economic value, Waste-to-Ammonia adoption faces key infrastructure and energy bottlenecks:

• 🚚 High transport costs, as EV waste haulers demand frequent, costly charging
• 🌤️ Intermittent solar and wind, misaligned with ammonia's constant energy needs
• 💸 Electricity costs ≥60% of total OPEX, amplified by market volatility
• 🌱 Land-use limitations, restricting clean energy deployment near processing hubs
• 🧊 Storage dependency, due to mismatched energy availability and ammonia production cycles

While biogenic waste-based ammonia offers superior emissions savings, its full potential depends on uninterrupted access to clean, grid-independent power.

❓ What If...

Imagine scaling Waste-to-Ammonia with:

• ⚡ Predictable clean electricity, immune to weather or geographic limits
• 🏭 Industrial-grade reliability, without fossil-based backup systems
• 🔁 24/7 production, biochar recovery, and strong ROI for climate-aligned investors

Continuous Clean Power to Accelerate Waste-to-SAF & SMD Capabilities

The Challenge

Global demand for jet fuel and kerosene is rebounding — forecasted to reach 8 million barrels/day by 2025, returning to pre-pandemic highs. Each tonne of jet fuel emits:

• ~3.16 tonnes of CO₂ during combustion, and
• ~3.66 tonnes of CO₂ across its full lifecycle

Meanwhile, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is projected to reach 10 million tonnes annually by 2030, positioning itself as a key decarbonisation lever for the aviation industry.

On the seas, marine diesel (SMD) demand is also rising — driven by global trade expansion, with the market estimated to hit $24.3 billion by 2032 (CAGR: 4.7%). The marine sector is now exploring synthetic and alternative fuels, but scalability and emissions remain pressing concerns.

Enter Waste-to-SAF & SMD — a circular innovation that converts waste into low-carbon fuels, while generating biochar that revitalizes land, avoiding environmental displacement often seen in conventional "green" developments.

⚠️ Barriers Hindering Scale-Up

Despite its potential, adoption faces significant headwinds:

• 🚚 Cost-intensive EV waste logistics, with frequent charging for heavy-duty trucks
• 🌤️ Intermittent solar and wind, unable to meet continuous process energy needs
• 💸 Electricity costs ≥60% of total OPEX, worsened by grid volatility
• 🌱 Land availability conflicts, limiting siting of renewable infrastructure near facilities
• 🧊 Storage challenges, as energy generation rarely matches SAF/SMD production schedules

Although biogenic waste-derived fuels offer superior carbon savings, unlocking their full value depends on reliable, cost-effective access to green electricity.

❓ What If...

Imagine scaling Waste-to-SAF & SMD with:

• ⚡ Predictable clean energy, independent of geography and weather
• 🏭 Grid-free industrial resilience, eliminating fossil-based backup
• 🔁 Round-the-clock production, circular carbon recovery, and high-yield climate investment
