EBA Biomethane Investment Outlook 2026

01.07.2026

EBA monitors biomethane investments yearly to forecast the growth of the sector and better identify market trends, drivers, and gaps. According to the Biomethane Investment Outlook 2026, investor appetite also remains strong, with investment commitments reaching €36 billion, a significant increase from last year’s reported investments (€28 billion), This growing investment confidence underlines the sector’s significant acceleration potential, provided that the right regulatory conditions are put in place. If fully realised, these investments are expected to deliver 9 bcm/year of additional biomethane production capacity by 2030, strengthening Europe’s domestic energy supply and contributing to the EU’s decarbonisation objectives.
