Original Abstract
Circular economy principles are accommodated worldwide to respond to current negative environmental trends. Whereas non-recyclable waste disturbs the sustainability of this concept, Waste-to-Energy technology is a promising approach to the problem. This paper studies the economic consequences of Waste-to-Energy technology implementation into waste management strategies using cooperative game theory. Assuming limited landfilling, municipalities treat produced waste using services of Waste-to-Energy plants. Cooperative reservation of some plants’ capacities to waste producers with disadvantageous locations reduces their waste treatment costs in exchange for financial compensation. The paper provides a review of current applications of game theory to environmental studies and exploits apparatus of distributed dynamic coalition formation games in the Czech Republic waste management case study. Results provide a view on the impact of the Waste-to-Energy technology implementation and limited landfilling on the municipal budgets and suggest the most suitable municipal unions for handling waste management tasks.
