The European Biogas Association has launched its Activity Report 2024, highlighting a year of impactful advocacy and growth for sustainable biogases in Europe. In 2024, we raised our industry’s profile through high-level meetings, impactful outreach campaigns, and new resources, including market intelligence and in-depth policy analysis. 💡 We also contributed to 6 EU research projects, strengthening EBA evidence-based advocacy that is increasingly recognised by various international bodies. 🤝 To connect our growing community, we introduced new initiatives like Biogases Business Day and the European Renewable Gases Training Centre. Our growth was reflected not only in the EBA Secretariat and membership but also in the European biogases sector as a whole. 📈 Key developments have been mapped in various EBA publications, including the EBA Statistical Report, the Biomethane Map, the Investment Outlook, and first-of-their-kind inventories of methanation and gasification projects in Europe. The increasing interest in our sector was also visible during EBA’s flagship event in October. 👏 The European Biogas Conference was a great success - it attracted a record 710 participants. 📌 While we celebrate this progress, challenges remain. With the new EU institutional cycle and initiatives like the Clean Industrial Deal, 2025 will be a pivotal year for biogases to shape Europe’s energy future. Let’s continue advocating for the role of biogases in boosting Europe’s industrial competitiveness and driving a greener, more sustainable future! #biogas #biomethane #sustainable #energysecurity #competitiveness 

🌍 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗕𝗶𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸! 🌍 Value4Farm joined 700+ participants at the European Biogas Association’s annual conference in Brussels, where biomethane's 2024 growth to 6.4 bcm was celebrated—a 32% increase from last year! 🎉 As we aim for 35 bcm by 2030, it’s clear biomethane is key to Europe’s sustainable future. Biogases don’t just provide energy flexibility, they also support #RegenerativeAgriculture and strengthen Europe’s #CircularEconomy. But to reach full potential, we need consistent policies and community trust. 📸 At the event, Value4Farm’s Belgian demo case was showcased, and partner CIB - Consorzio Italiano Biogas won the Green Narrator Award for its storytelling impact! 👉 Want to learn more?

Important that everyone in the biogas world supports this initiative as WBA is working hard to create international standards and policy templates for countries to implement biogas investments and accelerated industry growth.

More great news for Biogas in Italy! 🌍 ANAERGIA UK Ltd. has struck a €100m deal to build five biomethane plants in Southern Italy with Techbau S.p.A.. These facilities are set to revolutionise renewable energy in the region by converting agricultural and food processing wastes into biomethane. The project aims to contribute significantly to Italy's gas pipeline grid by the end of 2025, aligning with the nation's decarbonisation goals. This partnership not only underscores the importance of sustainable energy solutions but also highlight ANAERGIA UK Ltd.'s commitment to delivering technologies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote a circular economy. Key Highlights: ✅ Five biomethane plants in Southern Italy ✅ Deal worth €100m ✅ Expected completion by the end of 2025 ✅ Approximately C$25m in revenues ✅ Use of advanced anaerobic digestion technologies Anaergia and Techbau are paving the way for a greener, more sustainable future. Hats off to both companies for their innovative approach and dedication to sustainability! 👏 Follow our page for more updates https://lnkd.in/eAG5dMTJ #Sustainability #Biomethane #RenewableEnergy

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑷𝑹𝑶𝑫𝑬𝑽𝑨𝑳 𝑺𝒂𝒈𝒂 | 𝑬𝒑𝒊𝒔𝒐𝒅𝒆 ❷ 🌿 Our second episode focuses on the PAOLOZZI family's commitment! From an environmental vision to a family commitment 🍃 It was in 𝟏𝟗𝟗𝟓 that Vincent Paolozzi founded CEFT: an environmental consultancy firm specializing in refrigeration and thermal systems. Vincent implemented new solutions to purify and valorize biogas from landfills for collection. CEFT's work involved conducting studies on biogas valorization based on various local parameters: ◾ Estimation of biogas production from a landfill site over 20 or 30 years ◾ Development of 2 to 4 solutions per project ◾ Technical solutions development ◾ Space requirements ◾ Site layout ◾ Estimation of CAPEX and OPEX ◾ Preparation of a 10 or 15-year business plan 💬 "𝑰𝒏 𝒔𝒉𝒐𝒓𝒕, 𝒘𝒆 𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒆𝒅 𝒂 𝒔𝒕𝒖𝒅𝒚 𝒅𝒐𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒆𝒅 𝒂𝒔 𝒂 𝒅𝒆𝒄𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏-𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒊𝒅 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒔.

HOFSTETTER France becomes 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗗𝗘𝗩𝗔𝗟: 𝗣𝗥𝗢cesses for 𝗗𝗘pollution and 𝗩𝗔𝗟orization Then in 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟓, Sébastien joined his father Vincent by integrating CEFT and PRODEVAL as an employee, while settling permanently in Drôme. "He trained at CEFT, from adjusting biogas networks in landfills to various valorization studies," recounts Vincent Paolozzi. Don't miss our next episode where we'll discover the year 2009! A year of change for 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗗𝗘𝗩𝗔𝗟 and Sébastien PAOLOZZI...
