Biogases: A resilient, competitive and sustainable solution for Europe

About biogas and biomethane

Biogases reflect Europe’s commitment to affordable, secure, and sustainable energy. By turning organic waste into renewable power, they boost energy independence, cut emissions, and support a circular bioeconomy. Locally produced and scalable, biogases help communities and industries lead climate action and ensure energy resilience.
