Biomethane Market: Growth Factors

Biomethane, a natural gas, is a green source of energy source, which is generated via anaerobic digestion of organic materials like deceased animals and plant materials, manure, wastewater, organic waste, etc. As biomethane is chemically identical to natural gas, it is used for the same purposes as natural gas, such as generating electricity, heating rooms and water, cooking, and fuel for vehicles.

The global biomethane market is expected to witness notable growth over the next few years, owing to the increasing automotive production across the globe. Moreover, the versatile properties of biomethane, such as less corrosive as compared to biogas, make it a valuable fuel. Additionally, the raw material used for biomethane production is biogas, which can be processed from various feedstock sources like vegetables and animals. Thus, it is eco-friendly and most efficient fuel for various applications.

Therefore, these factors are expected to drive the consumption of biomethane, thereby, propelling the biomethane market in the years ahead. However, biomethane is approximately 19% more expensive than natural gas, which may limit the biomethane market in the upcoming years. Nevertheless, advancements in the production technologies of biomethane are projected to offer new opportunities for biomethane market growth.
