Question 14998 — waste

Summary

Ms. Marie-Agnès Poussier-Winsback draws the attention of the Minister of Ecological Transition, Biodiversity and International Negotiations on Climate and Nature to the increase in energy costs and its impact on the recycling sector. The rapid rise in fuel costs, particularly diesel and RNG, due to recent geopolitical developments, is dangerously weakening the activity of players in the recycling sector. These regional stakeholders, particularly in the Seine-Maritime department, are affected directly by their operating costs. For a company consuming 195,000 liters of fuel each year, an increase of 0.40 euros per liter could result in additional annual costs of nearly 80,000 euros. This direct impact is difficult to absorb for these players whose sector is already under pressure. Moreover, the impact is also indirect with an increase in transport and logistics costs, tensions on supplies as well as downward pressure on certain material prices. This situation leads to a worrying scissor effect between sharply rising costs and constrained sales prices. This therefore comes in a context that is already tense for the sector due to developments in the REP sectors. Recyclers Independents are local economic players who contribute directly to waste management and the recovery of materials in the region. The weakening of these activities would have serious consequences for employment, the local economy and local communities. She therefore wants to know if she is working on suitable support measures for this local sector of capital importance.
