	The primary subsidies that have been available in the waste-related market have centered on the generation of renewable electricity, heat and road fuels ~~over recent years~~ (notwithstanding the subsidy that was available to those local authorities as part of a [[PFI]] that they may have entered into with the private sector).		The primary subsidies that have been available in the waste-related market have centered on the generation of renewable electricity, heat and road fuels (notwithstanding the subsidy that was available to those local authorities as part of a [[PFI\|Public Finance Initiative]] (PFI) that they may have entered into with the private sector).

	The subsidies relating to renewable electricity started with the [[NFFO]] regime (which had a strong bias towards [[Landfill Gas]] power generation), ~~which in turn~~ was replaced by the [[ROC]] regime (which had more of a bias towards new [[ACT]] and [[AD]] technologies) and which is still being paid on some projects. In the case of [[AD]] this was also supported by the [[FIT]] regime, which was designed for smaller projects that in many cases better aligned with [[AD]] than the [[ROC]] regime, which ran in parallel for larger schemes. The most recent subsidy to replace the [[ROC]] regime is the [[CFD]] regime (which was biased towards other renewable power, but ~~which~~ has ~~also~~ supported some [[ACT]] projects generating electrical power).		The subsidies relating to renewable electricity started with the [[NFFO\|Non Fossil Fuel Obligation]] (NFFO) regime (which had a strong bias towards [[Landfill Gas]] power generation), it was replaced by the [[ROC\|Renewable Obligation Scheme]] (ROC) regime (which had more of a bias towards new [[ACT]] and [[AD]] technologies) and which is still being paid on some projects today. In the case of [[AD]] this was also supported by the [[FIT\|Feed in Tarriff]] (FIT) regime, which was designed for smaller projects that in many cases better aligned with [[AD]] than the [[ROC]] regime, which ran in parallel for larger schemes. The most recent subsidy to replace the [[ROC]] regime is the [[CFD\|Contracts for Difference]] (CfD) regime (which was biased towards other forms of renewable power, but has supported some [[ACT]] projects generating electrical power).

	The subsidies relating to renewable heat have been focused on the [[RHI]] regime, encouraging [[CHP]] schemes but also having an impact on direct injection of [[Methane]] into the gas grid to replace natural gas. The methane has often been generated from [[Landfill Gas]] and [[AD]] projects.		The subsidies relating to renewable heat have been focused on the [[RHI\|Renewable Heat Initiative]] (RHI) regime, encouraging [[CHP\|Combined Heat and Power]] (CHP) schemes but also having an impact on direct injection of [[Methane]] into the gas grid to replace natural gas. The methane has often been generated from [[Landfill Gas]] and [[AD]] projects.

	The final set of subsidies that relate to the market are based indirectly around the [[RTFO]] regime, where renewable transport fuels ~~are~~ have been encouraged and this is ~~encouraging~~ a focus on technologies that ~~generating~~ methane and hydrogen for use in vehicles.

The final set of subsidies that relate to the market are based indirectly around the [[RTFO\|Renewable Transport Fuels Obligation]] (RFTO) regime, where renewable transport fuels have been encouraged and this is driving a focus on technologies that generate methane and hydrogen for use in vehicles.

	Whilst the [[PRN]] regime is intended to encourage recycling of specific materials, the mechanism works more as a tool to encourage investment by increasing the cost to waste producers and the market, rather than a subsidy per se, but arguably those that undertake the recycling and generate the [[PRN]] itself benefit from a payment that supports/encourages their activity.
