In Belgium, ENGIE continues building its European biomethane production platform, in line with its objectives and those of the EU. Belgium will now benefit from ENGIE’s expertise in integrating biomethane into the local gas network, a first for the country. In 2023, ENGIE has set an ambitious goal: to produce 10 TWh of biomethane per […]
In Spain, Ence Biogas expects to reach a biomethane production of 1TWh in 2030 working with agricultural biomass, livestock and agri-food industry. For its part, the company expects to close this year 2024 reached 14 projects in environmental processing mainly in Castilla y León, Aragon, Catalonia, Castilla-La Mancha and Andalusia. This was announced by the […]
In the Ukraine, VITAGRO Group has successfully injected the first Ukrainian biomethane into the gas transportation system. This is a milestone for Ukraine, unlocking opportunities for the export of eco-friendly biofuel. The VITAGRO plant in the Khmelnytskyi region is supplying biomethane into the GTS at 60-70% of the planned volumes, approximately 6,000 cubic meters daily. […]
In Denmark, by signing cooperation agreements with Nature Energy, Nordzucker is setting a major milestone on the road to producing CO₂-neutral by 2050. Nordzucker supplies Danish beet residues to Nature Energy who produces biomethane for sugar production. From 2025 on, Nordzucker will use it for decarbonization of the sugar production in the two Danish factories. […]
In Spain, Spanish energy company Cepsa announced it had begun trading biomethane, certified by the ISCC, to reduce emissions across its operations. The first purchase, 25 GWh of renewable gas from the Valdemingómez waste plant in Madrid, is being used to decarbonize Cespa’s chemicals business. Deliveries from this initial purchase will continue until January 2025. […]
In Spain, Nedgia, the Naturgy Group’s gas distributor, has already signed 45 contracts for connection to biomethane plants for the injection of renewable gas into its gas distribution network. The injection capacity linked to these requests amounts to 2,400 GWh/year, equivalent to the gas consumption of nearly half a million homes in Spain. By autonomous […]
In Japan, Hamanaka Town, JA Hamanaka, Takanashi Milk Products, Hokkaido Gas, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, and MOL Sunflower launched a study to explore using biomethane from dairy farm manure as an alternative to liquefied natural gas in factories and vessels. This study, centered in the dairy-rich region of Hamanaka, Hokkaido, will assess whether biomethane can be […]
