At the same time, WTE (waste-to-energy) is realized as recovery of energy. WTE, however, has weakness of low generation efficiency and output in Japan due to smaller capacity of incinerator plants. To overcome above weakness, high efficient WTE is necessary with total integration and scaling up of incinerator plants. In addition FIT (feed-in tariff) has been started recently in Japan. When planning, we must consider totally both cost of incinerator plants and cost of refuse collection which is important role for the waste disposal.
