The Biomethane Industrial Partnership
The need to scale up biomethane in Europe is more urgent than ever, following the need to reduce dependency on natural gas imports from Russia and address high energy prices while simultaneously addressing the climate crisis.
Biomethane is the cheapest and most rapidly scalable renewable gas available today. Therefore, the European Commission has announced in its recent REPowerEU plan a target to increase annual EU production and use of sustainable biomethane to 35 billion cubic metres by 2030. The Commission also announced the creation of a Biomethane Industrial Partnership (BIP).
The BIP is an industrial partnership in which policy makers, industry and other stakeholders team up with the goal to support the achievement of the target of 35 billion cubic metres annual production and use of sustainable biomethane by 2030, and to create the preconditions for a further ramp-up of its potential towards 2050.
Stay up to date on the upcoming events that are organised by the Biomethane Industrial Partnership, or where the partnership will present:
The Biomethane Industrial Partnership will host the policy session “From waste to renewable energy: how biomethane can foster resilient energy communities” at the European Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW) 2024 on June 12, from 16:30 to 18:00 CEST, focusing on biomethane and how it can foster resilient and effective energy communities.

To register for our session, please begin by registering for EUSEW2024. After completing your registration, navigate to the “Programme” section on the EUSEW website. Select our session “From Waste to Renewable Energy: Biomethane and Renewable Energy Communities” scheduled for June 12, from 16:30 and 18:00 CEST. Then, click on “Add to my agenda”.
The European Biomethane Week (EUBW) is a must event for producers, users, investors and legislators involved in the deployment of biogases across Europe.
The second edition of the EUBW “On your marks, get set… grow! Biogases: the pragmatic pathway to climate-neutrality” will offer multiple opportunities to engage, get insights and explore the most relevant topics for the biogases industry. A wide variety of activities will be deployed in Brussels and other European countries from 21 to 25 October 2024. Read more here.
The European Biomass Conference & Exhibition (EUBCE) 2024 is the largest biomass conference and exhibition in the world. Each year, the EUBCE brings together the greatest minds and latest advancements in biomass, with the aim of accelerating research and market uptake across the globe. This year the event will take place from 24 to 27 June 2024, both in Marseille and online.
Register now by following this link. Members of BIP are entitled to 10% discount on the registration fees.

For further information, visit the EUBCE website or contact biomass.conference@etaflorence.it.
The Biomethane Industrial Partnership brings together EU policy makers, Member State representatives, companies active in the biomethane supply chain and other stakeholders. With the goal to support the achievement of the target of 35 billion cubic metres annual production & use of sustainable biomethane by 2030, and to create the preconditions for a further ramp-up of its potential towards 2050.
The Biomethane Industrial Partnership got formally launched on the 28 of September during the European Sustainable Energy Week. The partnership membership is free, and is open to all interested stakeholders that align with the goal of the partnership.
