Today, we continue exploring the latest trends in the biogas market with a focus on biomethane. Biomethane production hit a record in 2023, growing to 4.9 bcm, with an installed capacity of 6.4 bcm/year as of early 2024. This represents the biggest year-on-year increase ever, with a notable 21% growth in the EU area. Key highlights 👇 · 201 new biomethane plants were added across Europe in 2023, bringing the total to 1,510 biomethane-producing facilities. · Countries leading the way in growth are Italy, France, Denmark, and the UK. · Newcomers: Portugal, Lithuania, and Ukraine joined the biomethane-producing countries. With plants now operating in 25 European countries, biomethane is fueling the energy transition and boosting sustainability across the continent. Despite the figures confirming the growth of the sector, as well as its role in reaching climate goals and energy independence, a greater focus on the optimisation of market and regulatory conditions, including coherent planning of biomethane potential and faster permitting procedures, will be essential to ensure sustained growth in the coming years.
