A long-awaited and "essential" policy will "drive investment" in Ireland's indigenous biomethane...
Ireland's National Biomethane Strategy will be the focus of the 2024 Biomethane Conference held by the RGFI at Croke Park next month.
The EU's recommendation to reduce GHG emissions by 90% by 2040 has been said to be "underlining the importance" of an Irish biomethane sector.
The government's new National Biomethane Strategy must include a minimum of 50% in capital funding, Renewable Gas Forum Ireland (RGFI) said.
"There is an opportunity for the agri-food sector to seek a multiplier on the credits from indigenous biomethane production from feedstock."
Engaging with local communities is key to successful planning applications for anaerobic digestion (AD) biomethane plants, a meeting heard.
Ambitions to develop 130 anaerobic digestion biomethane plants in Ireland by 2030 have been unveiled by the Renewable Gas Forum Ireland.
