The Biogas Buildout Curve: What Happens When Projects Outpace Policy #5
Description
This week on We Are Biogas, we unpack one of the biggest global weeks yet for biogas, biomethane, RNG, and anaerobic digestion.
From Brazil’s rapid rise as a biomethane powerhouse to Ukraine’s 2035 export strategy, Ireland’s €80 million project launch, and Australia’s growing renewable gas momentum — the industry is moving from ambition to execution.
In this episode, we cover:
- Brazil closes 2025 with 1,803 biogas plants and rising biomethane output
- Ukraine launches a national biomethane roadmap aligned with EU markets
- Ireland breaks ground on a major Cork facility amid policy tensions
- Sweden unlocks stranded LNG capacity with critical pipeline infrastructure
- Anaergia expands RNG deployment in the United States
- Cuba launches its first biomethane transport fuel project
- Australia updates national gas standards to formally recognise biomethane
- China scales circular agriculture with pipeline-injected renewable gas
- Canada pilots breakthrough landfill gas upgrading technology
- Lithuania expands renewable gas certificate trading across Europe
Exclusive Interview:
Alexandra speaks with Levent Hilmi, Founder of Resource Loop and Head of Growth & Partnerships at Run Energy, for a deep dive into Australia’s emerging biomethane market.
They discuss:
- Why Australia may become one of the most important new biomethane markets
- Feedstock bottlenecks and project bankability
- Grid injection vs behind-the-meter energy use
- Why cheap fossil gas remains a challenge
- The 3–5 year horizon for Australia’s project boom
- Lessons from Europe and North America
If you work in renewable gas, energy transition, waste-to-energy, agriculture, utilities, climate tech, or infrastructure investment — this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
