The third SRF Policy-Tech Forum was livestreamed on YouTube on June 16. In the discussion, an official from the Ministry of Environment emphasized the need to implement a new incentive scheme to replace REC in the SRF market. The new scheme, probably funded by EPR and waste disposal charge, may promote the use of SRF which is facing a mounting pressure from shrinking REC.
The official also pointed out that Korea’s energy recovery rate from wastes (7.7%) significantly falls behind compared to Japan (57%), EU (16.5%), and the US (12.7%).
