The EU’s biomethane market has been developing at speed.Since 2023, production has risen more than 30% and the fuel is fast becoming not just an instrument to reach energy transition targets but is also making a real contribution to security of supply.
A number of western European countries including France, Germany, Denmark, Italy, the UK are leading the way thanks to their extensive agricultural sectors and well designed subsidies schemes.
