In this year's technical report you can find out, among other things, what the Federal Council's decision on the ORDEE is all about and which restructuring within the industry is providing fresh impetus.
We also show how many tonnes of electrical waste were collected and processed in 2021, how in the canton of Geneva electrical appliances could be collected for recycling or reuse directly from the doorstep, what EMPA and SECO have been doing for 20 years to ensure the sustainable handling of discarded electrical appliances in developing countries, and what new findings are known about PCBs in ballasts.
