As the year comes to a close, we extend our warmest wishes to the BIP members. Over the past two years, we have made great strides in advancing #biomethane development across Europe, fostering collaboration, having workshops, being part of study tours and publishing key reports. These publications are publicly accessible in the BIP’s website, facilitating the dissemination of knowledge. Sustained collaboration among all stakeholders remains pivotal to unlocking the full potential of sustainable biomethane within Europe’s dynamic energy landscape. ✨ Download the work of the BIP: https://lnkd.in/dS8NGitA 🌟 May this festive season inspire us to continue work together with innovative ways toward the sustainable and renewable energy transition.   🎄 Season’s greetings from the Biomethane Industrial Partnership.

🌱 Task Force 3.2 released a factsheet accompanying the report “Feedstock Production on Marginal and Contaminated Land – An EU-Wide Potential Assessment.” This document provides a summary of key findings from the report, including: 🔸 Definitions and current mapping of marginal and contaminated lands 🔸 Opportunities and barriers for biomass from marginal and contaminated lands 🔸 A review of the most recent EU-funded projects 🔸 The policy context at EU level 👉 Dive into the factsheet to explore more: https://lnkd.in/eZd9A-3T #biomethane #contaminated #marginal #lands 

🌍 Integrating Ukraine as a supplier of sustainable biomethane 💡 Task force 6 works to contribute to unlock biomethane production in Ukraine, contributing to reduce dependency on fossil fuel imports from Russia and building stronger energy cooperation between the EU and Ukraine. 🚀 Kicked off in April 2024, Task Force 6 brings together key stakeholders from Ukraine and DG ENER. 📈 Current focus: ✅ Facilitating cross-border biomethane trading between the EU and Ukraine ✅ Enhancing production and demand for biomethane in Ukraine 📚 Recently, we hosted a workshop to provide an educational session for economic operators to navigate Ukraine's newly enacted biomethane export law and its legal requirements: https://lnkd.in/dizAVW6m 👉 Learn more about Task Force 6 here: https://lnkd.in/diefbYDE or scan the QR code in our leaflet! #Biomethane #EnergyTransition #Ukraine #EUCooperation #RenewableEnergy #SustainableFuture #EnergyIndependence

💡 Task Force 5 works to identify the current status of R, D&I in biomethane production and what is needed for innovation to be commercialised. 👥 Task Force 5 unites academia, associations and technology providers, along with representatives from DG RTD. 📄 Task Force 5 prepared two reports that offer critical insights: 🔸 Innovative technologies for biomethane production: review of the current state of the art 🔸 Improving digestate valorisation: novel technologies and research needs Explore these resources to understand the latest advances and future research priorities that will help unlock biomethane’s potential 🌱 🔗 Download these materials here: https://lnkd.in/e3tPiBHV or use the QR code in our one-page leaflet! #biomethane #innovation #sustainability #renewableenergy #research

📢 Curious about the latest updates on biomethane export legislation in Ukraine? Task Force 6 recently hosted an insightful workshop to provide an educational session for economic operators to give clarity on the newly enacted biomethane export law in Ukraine and its legal requirements. The slidedeck covers: 🔹 Overview of the new legal framework 🔹 Key points on implementation of the new law 🔹 Sustainability, verifiability, and traceability requirements 🔹 The new law seen from business and the EU 📥 Don’t miss out!

🌿 On the second day of the #EBAConference, our BIP members highlighted several crucial topics. Tom Howes (DG ENER and member of BIP Governing Board) shared his positive perspective on the recent updates to NECPs. He expressed optimism about the sector’s technological advancements, which are enabling increased biomethane production from limited biomass resources. Michał Łęski, PhD (Ministry of Climate and Environment of Poland, Member State of Task Force 1) gave an overview of Poland’s initiatives. He highlighted measures like the feed-in tariff introduced last year and the ongoing development of legislation to support investments in the agricultural-biogas sector. Giovanni Perrella (Ministry of Environment and Energy Security, Italy, and member of Task Force 1) shared Italy's perspective on primarily using biomethane in the transport sector and for industrial decarbonisation. He emphasised the strong, positive sentiment toward biomethane in Italy, noting the high demand from industry, which sees it as the only viable solution for achieving decarbonisation targets by 2030, given the lack of alternative options.  Aymeric de Loubens (Ministry in Charge of Energy, France, Member State part of Task Force 1) highlighted the significant growth of biomethane production in France over the past decade. In 2023 alone, production increased by 31% compared to 2022, with nearly 700 biomethane plants now operating across the country. Charles-Henri des Villettes (Air Liquide, part of Task Force 2 & 3) presented their sustainability assessment methodology with four key criteria for project selection. During the breakout session ‘Beyond AD: the future is now,’ focused on methanation and gasification, Leonardo Senatori (Pietro Fiorentini, part of Task Force 2, 3 & 6) mentioned key factors for their implementation, sharing insights from their ongoing projects in this field, while Maria Georgiadou (DG RTD and co-chair of Task Force 5) provided an overview of the EU programmes, funding schemes and initiatives in this area and highlighted the BIP Task Force 5 report on the current state of biomethane technologies. During the last session, Filippo Munna (Hexagon Agility and member of Task Force 4) emphasised biomethane's ability to significantly reduce emissions, highlighting that it is the only carbon-negative fuel with great potential for use in the maritime sector. Andrea Qualiano (Edison and member of Task Force 2 & 4) shared his insights on bioLNG, calling it a fuel with tremendous potential for reducing GHG emissions and decarbonising the maritime industry.

📢 At the #EBAConference, Task Force 3.4 launched its report on a methodology for identifying sustainable biomethane feedstocks 🌿 The report launch is accompanied by a factsheet designed to provide a visual summary of the key findings. Both publications are part of the activities taking place during the European Biomethane Week. Meeting the EU’s 35 bcm biomethane target requires a significant effort to identify and ensure an adequate supply of sustainable feedstocks. That’s why Task Force 3.4 took a deepdive and developed a methodology to identify and select sustainable biomethane feedstocks. 👉 Come visit the BIP stand at the EBA Conference to grab the factsheet that summarises the report! 📄 Download the report: https://lnkd.in/eZd9A-3T 📊 Download the factsheet: https://lnkd.in/eZd9A-3T #EBAConference #EUBW2024 #biomethane #sustainability #feedstocks #renewableenergy
