| Abstract | Biomethane is a promising renewable energy carrier, scoring very well in terms of sustainability, and with great potential in the transformation of the fossil fuel based energy market to a renewable based one. In a joint IEA Bioenergy study a group of scientists examined the state of the art, as well as the development of the biomethane market in selected IEA member countries. Due to its similar properties, biomethane can be used as a substitute for natural gas and benefits from the existing infrastructure and applications. Nevertheless, biomethane is far from market penetration. Within this study a survey was performed with the aim to represent the current market situation of biomethane. A questionnaire was distributed to stakeholders within the participating member countries in the study; around 100 replies were received. A common conclusion is the missing policy framework, acceptance and support which hinder further market development. Further, according to the results of the questionnaire, a reliable and sufficient support for biomethane and the implementation of a biomethane standard would open opportunities and lead to a stable market. |
