Biomass is currently the most important renewable energy source in Germany. Approximately two-thirds of the available residue potential in Germany is already used energetically, the thermal recovery with the use of waste wood predominates (Nelles et al. 2013). The energy potential of relevant organic waste and residuals such as waste wood (8%), straw (7%), manure (6%), industrial waste wood (4%) as well as bio- and green waste (1%) is estimated by the Agency for Renewable Energy up to 383 PJ/a in 2020 (AEE 2013).
The share of these substances amounts one third of the technical fuel potential of the total available biomass (usable arable land 2.7 millionhectare).By 2020, the untapped energy potential should to be used for all bioenergy sources. However the development of the energy use of these substances is progressing slowly. These include, forexample for biogas production: organic waste from livestock such as liquid and solid manure or municipal sewage sludge, landscaping material and organic waste from industry and households. In the area of municipal organic waste (compost bin content and biodegradable gardening waste) increasing collected amounts are expected from 2015. New waste fermentation plants are increasingly using these wastes. A trend is the integration of a fermentation step in existing composting plants.

Fremdstoffgehalte in den Sieblinien von Biogut nach Voraufbereitung
© Witzenhausen-Institut für Abfall, Umwelt und Energie GmbH (11/2024)
Fremd- und Kunststoffeinträge im getrennt erfassten Biogut rücken zunehmend in den Fokus des Gesetzgebers. Mit der Novellierung der BioAbfV treten zum 01.05.2025 erstmals Grenzwerte in Kraft, die sich auf das frische Biogut vor der biologischen Behandlung beziehen.

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
