Recycling plastic into feedstock is a crucial piece of the energy transition puzzle. We use a lot of plastic – 380 million tons of it is produced every year. Reducing the amount of fossil fuels used in its production, and minimizing waste going into landfill is crucial as we accelerate towards net zero.

Plastic Energy is a plastic producer who are leading this charge. In this week’s Interchange: Recharged, we sit down with Adela Putinelu, Head of Policy and Sustainability at Plastic Energy.

They talk about the technology used to turn end-of-life plastic into feedstock for the production of new plastic products.

How can we create a circular economy with recycling? What part will it play in the energy transition, and where is the demand for 100% recycled plastics?
