While Europe’s long-term biomethane potential remains strong as output is projected to reach up to 35bcm by 2030, growth is being slowed by regulatory bottlenecks, permitting delays and feedstock constraints. At the same time, new policy developments are reshaping the outlook. Germany is tightening transport decarbonization rules while introducing more flexible pathways for renewable gases in heating. At the same time, policy fragmentation persists, highlighted by the European Commission’s action against France over its certification scheme. So, what does this mean for the future role of biomethane in Europe’s energy mix? Aura Sabadus has invited ICIS biomethane and power market specialist Andrea Battaglia to unpack the shifting landscape of Europe’s biomethane market.
