PPI4Waste Project: Current Practice and New Trends in Waste Management Sector

Effective waste management is heavily dependent on the development of innovative solutions for waste collection and treatment. Public procurement of innovation (PPI), particularly, is a way to encourage the development of new, more efficient solutions. The PPI4Waste project gives an overview of the current waste management and at the same time explores mechanisms to overcome barriers to public procurement of innovation in the waste management sector, where a number of activities are taking place within the project lifetime to help increase uptake of innovative waste solutions. This project aims to achieve resource efficiency, sustainable waste management and sustainable consumption throughout Europe by increasing innovative public procurement through networking, capacity building and dissemination. In order to achieve this, the common needs within the public sector in Europe have been identified and presented in this paper, with an intention to move from product purchase towards the service delivery.
