Strategic Opportunities in the Russian Waste Management Market
Frost & Sullivan, Oct 2010, Pages: 77
This research provides a comprehensive assessment of the Russian waste management market including market structure, growth opportunities and competitive analysis. The research covers market revenue forecasts for the waste management industry and discusses market shares by tiers of key companies in the sector. It further provides an understanding of the impact of the economic slowdown covering key indicators of the economy as well as particular relevance to the waste management market. The salient features of the Russian market including legislative aspects, administrative provisions and investment potentials have been discussed in detail.
This research service titled Strategic Opportunities in the Russian Waste Management Market provides in-depth analysis of key market trends, growth sectors and forecasts. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following waste management services: collection and transportation, sorting and treatment, disposal and landfill and recycling. The research also covers waste types: municipal solid waste, industrial and hazardous wastes. There are three case studies: World Bank financing programme for waste management, Moscow’s waste management market and the St. Petersburg Yanino Waste Treatment Plant project.
Russian Waste Management Market Offers Significant Growth Potential
The Russian waste management market is growing, with substantial investments still required for service providers to cope with waste in accordance with sanitary and environmental standards. Improvements in technology, management expertise and diversification of services are necessary in order to foster growth in existing waste management services, as well as for recycling and other types of waste processing methods. Heightened government and public awareness, coupled with initiatives and programmes attracting Russian and international investors, promise to open up lucrative opportunities in this market.
In Russia, waste service tariffs are increasing, driving market revenues persistently every year. In 2009, tariffs rose, depending on each region, by approximately 10 per cent, directly impacting revenues for all incumbent market participants. “Given that the tariff rates are low, market expansion is guaranteed,” notes the analyst of this research. “In addition, public pressure is further supporting market prospects.” With growth in tariffs on waste management services, existing market participants will be able to develop better strategies and more efficient processing methods. Moreover, higher tariffs will attract more investments as foreign and international waste management companies enter the market, thereby propelling market growth.
Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) Show Way Forward
The most significant challenge the market currently faces is the inability of waste treatment plants to process the large volumes of waste generated due to outdated technology. Waste is also frequently managed through illegal disposal on unauthorised landfills, with environmental pressure making this an infeasible practice. Waste disposed thus is as much of an environmental liability, as it is an inefficiently managed resource. “Expanded state programmes and investments by private market participants could boost technological development to levels where waste would not only stop polluting the environment, but be used or re-used efficiently as energy, fertilizers, or recycled by-products, like in Europe or North America,” remarks the analyst. “Landfill disposal is no longer as lucrative an opportunity as more developed services like recycling and waste-to-energy treatment.”
International participation in the Russian market is expanding with PPPs offering a route for technological improvements and service offerings. The next step for this developing market is for local Russian waste management companies to intensively re-position their services as early as possible. “PPPs have shown the route for market entry into the region,” concludes the analyst. “International waste management companies, as well as regional participants capable of making the proper investments stand to maximise growth and advancement in waste services.”
