Episode 437: EU biomethane market blooms but challenges slow down progress

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. However, building a single pan-European market is still a distant dream. ICIS energy news editor Andrea Battaglia tells senior reporter Aura Sabadus about the merits of this emerging sector but also the challenges that are slowing down progress.
