Waste-to-Energy & Circular
Unlocking finance for waste-to-energy and circular projects
I connect waste-to-energy, waste-to-fuel and circular infrastructure developers with the DFIs, lenders, investors and feedstock partners who understand waste assets.
Sector overview
Waste-to-energy, waste-to-X and circular economy projects sit at the intersection of infrastructure, energy and environmental policy. Their financing models differ from pure-play energy projects, and that is often where developers get stuck.
Lenders look for secure waste supply, long-term offtake of power, heat or fuel, and a clear permitting path. Beyond energy recovery, circular projects include waste-to-fuel, recycling infrastructure and resource recovery. These are real assets with real economics. They need the right capital structure.
How I help in waste-to-energy
I connect developers with the DFIs, export credit agencies and commercial lenders who understand waste infrastructure, and with the feedstock partners that underpin bankability.
- Project Finance: DFIs, ECAs and commercial lenders.
- Investor Introductions: equity and strategic investors.
- Feedstock Supply: waste and residue suppliers able to commit long-term volumes.
A waste-to-energy project without guaranteed waste supply is just an expensive building.
