European Biomethane Week 2023
4th week of October across Europe | 24-26 October: Flagship event in Brussels
A must event for producers, users, investors and legislators involved in the deployment of biogases across Europe.
- High-level European Biogas Conference with 500 participants and 40 speakers
- Expo area
- Networking opportunities
- Side-events
Why do you need to be there?
Europe must deploy 35 bcm of biomethane by 2030. This will slash greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and strengthen the EU’s strategic energy and technological autonomy. Biogas and biomethane impact reaches much further than their contribution to renewable energy.
Biomethane is the cheapest and most scalable form of renewable gas available today and provides long-term socio-economic and environmental benefits, supporting the transition to a more sustainable and circular economy.
The biogas value chain is actively working on the development of the sector to contribute to energy security in the EU. Sound policies and coherent planning are paramount to securing investments in the growth of the sector.
The European Biomethane Week will offer multiple opportunities to engage, get insights and explore the most relevant topics for the biogases industry:
- What role will biogases play in a Net-Zero Era?
- What is the added-value of biogases as drivers of the European Bioeconomy?
- How will member states bring the 35 bcm target into reality?
- How to ensure the contribution of biogases is fully recognized and ramped up in every sector?
- Sustainability and security as key pillars of a forward-looking sector.
- What trends will drive the biogases industry of tomorrow?
Who else will join?
- High-level stakeholders from the renewable gas industry;
- Representatives from key areas for the development of the biogas industry, including the transport and agrobusiness sectors, as well as financers and end-users;
- Researchers and academia working on innovative renewable gas technologies to develop our industry;
- Influential policy-makers for the biogas sector in Europe;
- Media experts.
