Ben Sheppard, Infrastructure and Energy Partner, has featured in the ENDS Report article, ‘The unintended consequences of plugging the pipeline of new energy-from-waste plants’.
In the article, Ben discusses the implications of the temporary pause on the issuance of new permits for waste incineration facilities.
Ben also shared concerns about the potential impact of the pause on the energy-from-waste (EfW) sector, particularly in relation to the government’s net-zero commitments. He stated, “The announcement appears to be at odds with the government’s recent support for the role of EfW facilities in achieving net-zero commitments.”
Ben’s comments highlight the potential tension between environmental policy and the need for effective waste management solutions. His insights showcase his extensive experience advising businesses in the EfW, and Infrastructure & Energy sector.
