Market Segmentation Analysis:
By Technology: The report provides the bifurcation of the market into three segments based on the technology: Anaerobic Digestion, Thermal Gasification, and Others. The anaerobic digestion segment held the highest share of the market, whereas thermal gasification is expected to be the fastest-growing segment in the forecasted period. Anaerobic digestion (AD) has historically dominated the biomethane market due to its maturity, scalability, and compatibility with a wide range of organic feedstocks. As technological advancements continue to improve process efficiency, enhance gas yields, and reduce operational costs, the use of anaerobic digestion for biomethane production is poised for continued growth in the forthcoming years. On the other hand, thermal gasification technology has emerged as a promising approach for converting biomass and organic waste into biomethane and other valuable products such as syngas and biochar. Unlike anaerobic digestion, which relies on microbial decomposition, thermal gasification utilizes high temperatures and controlled oxygen levels to convert organic materials into a synthesis gas composed of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and methane. While thermal gasification with biomethane synthesis is still in the pre-commercial phase, there is significant potential to scale up this technology in the mid to long term.
By Feedstock: The report further provides the segmentation based on the following feedstock: Municipal Solid Waste, Agriculture, Energy Crops, and Others. Municipal solid waste held the highest share of the market, whereas the agriculture segment is expected to be the fastest-growing segment in the forecasted period. The utilization of municipal solid waste (MSW) as a feedstock for biomethane production has been on the rise as the increasing global population and urbanization have led to a corresponding surge in waste generation, creating a significant abundance of organic materials suitable for biomethane production. Moreover, landfill diversion policies and regulations aimed at reducing methane emissions from waste decomposition have incentivized the adoption of waste-to-energy technologies such as anaerobic digestion for MSW treatment. On the other hand, as sustainable agriculture practices gain momentum, and policies incentivize renewable energy production from agricultural sources, the utilization of agricultural feedstock for biomethane is poised for significant growth in the forthcoming years.
By End-Use: The report provides the glimpse of the biomethane market based on the following end-use: Transport Fuel, Power Generation, and Others. Transport fuel held the highest share of the market and is expected to be the fastest-growing segment in the forecasted period. In the transportation sector, biomethane can be utilized as a direct substitute for compressed natural gas (CNG) or liquefied natural gas (LNG) in vehicles. Its use helps to significantly lower carbon dioxide emissions and other pollutants compared to conventional gasoline or diesel. In the past few years, the European transportation sector has also seen a strong increase in demand for biomethane supported by the numerous bio-LNG plants in operation and under construction. To continue this momentum and achieve rapid decarbonization policymakers in Europe would need to adopt a neutral-technology approach.
By Region: The report provides insight into the biomethane market value and market production based on the regions: Europe, North America, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. Europe held the major share of the market both in terms of market value and market production. European biomethane production has been further analyzed based on feedstock (Agriculture Residues, Energy Crops, Organic Waste, and Others), end-use (Building, Transport, Power, Industry, and Others), and regions (Germany, France, UK, Denmark, and Rest of Europe). Currently, the EU produces enough biomethane to satisfy approximately 2% of its total natural gas consumption. However, the REPowerEU plan aims to increase this share to 20% by 2030, necessitating a substantial increase in production to over 350 TWh annually. Capacity expansion efforts are already underway, with Europe boasting 1,322 biomethane-producing facilities as of April 2023. Countries like Denmark, Germany, France, the UK, the Netherlands, and Italy are leading the charge in biomethane production, driven by supportive government initiatives and ambitious renewable energy targets.
The expansion of the US biomethane sector is supported by legislative measures such as the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which provides fiscal support to biogas for all end-uses and extends credits for alternative fuels in transportation. Additionally, demand for biomethane from non-transportation sectors is expected to drive significant growth, with natural gas utilities and large natural gas users purchasing RNG to decarbonize their supplies and comply with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) commitments. The US’s biomethane market production has been further analyzed based on feedstock (Municipal Solid Waste, Agriculture Waste, Food Waste & Waste Water) and end-use (Transport Fuel and Power Generation).
China is the major producer of biomethane in the Asia-Pacific region and has the potential to grow further in the coming years. China has adopted its 14th Five-Year-Plan (FYP) on renewable energy, which includes high targets for renewables, including RNG, given its dual carbon strategic goals. Combined with the rural revitalization strategy and the strong focus of China’s policy on energy security, the still undeveloped RNG sector is expected to register an accelerated development during the 14th FYP period (2021-2025). The growth would be facilitated by improvement in policy support, better grid access to the network, and the participation of big players in the sector.
The Indian biomethane market production has also been analyzed based on the following feedstocks (Agricultural Waste, Pressmud, Municipal Solid Waste, Animal Waste, and Others).
