The use of biowaste as a resource allows moving closer to EU’s common objectives by reducing the amount of waste disposed in landfills. Also by using biowaste to produce something (biogas, compost) the reuse of waste materials is increased. If the biowaste is used to produce the biogas then
the biogas upgrading to biomethane quality and the distributing the biomethane through natural gas network is an opportunity to efficiently use renewable energy in more populated (urban) areas and increase the energy independence of country. This is a great amount that can be recycled to avoid waste disposal. Unfortunately the organic waste management is not developed in Latvia.
