Abstract

Abstract The latest National Determined Contributions in Côte d'Ivoire reveal that the waste sector is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. Despite the potential for composting and biogas to increase waste valorization, these sectors are underdeveloped and lack a legal framework. The aim of this paper is to analyze the economic benefits of a composting and biogas policy implementation in Côte d'Ivoire. Using a Computable General Equilibrium Model (CGE), the study takes into account the impact of these sectors on the economy and the effects of household and agricultural wastes, which are currently excluded from the national nomenclature. The results of the simulation showed positive impacts on green growth, employment, investment and demand, among others.
