No doubt, the production of biomethane is impressively increasing and has reached 4.2 bcm in Europe by the end of 2022. According to the target of the “Fitfor55” program, the production should reach 35bcm by 2030. However, there are still a few hurdles to overcome. Since the shock in 2021/22 the natural gas prices have come down and are again below the costs of biomethane production. Stakeholders are challenged to optimize the investment and operational costs and utilize all possibilities for monetizing the green value of the product. |
