How biomethane can help replace natural gas
As New Zealand grapples with growing energy security concerns, a Kiwi company has secured major international backing to turn waste into renewable gas. Why are overseas markets moving faster than us?
Renewable gas action plan shows huge potential benefits
How do we achieve renewable gas that meets half of New Zealand’s natural gas demand by 2050? The latest GasNZ document is a brilliant start, says Peter Sandston, Acting GM for Future Fuels at Clarus.
Biomethane action plan could meet half of NZ’s natural gas demand by 2050
A new strategy from GasNZ highlights how renewable gas made from organic waste could help strengthen New Zealand’s energy security while reducing emissions. Biomethane could be a core part of New Zealand’s renewable energy supply by 2035 and meet up to half of natural gas demand by 2050, according to the newly released Biomethane Strategy and Action Plan.
Europe's big push for reliable, popular energy
The European Union is pushing hard to increase its production of biomethane – but why the urgency? And why is biomethane the right choice to help tackle the problem?
First grid injection of biomethane in Ireland
Ireland’s first ever direct-to-grid injection of biomethane into the Northern Ireland gas grid at Dungannon stands as a ground-breaking milestone for the decarbonisation of energy.
