Europe Biogas Market Size 2025 to 2034

Europe dominated the global biogas market with the largest market share of 39.59% in 2024. The factors such as surge in demand for biogas in diverse sectors and industries, innovation and technological developments, and growing investments in the energy sector is contributing to the market growth.

The European Green Deal aims to make the EU the world’s first climate-neutral region by 2050, reducing pollution and restoring healthy nature and ecosystems. As countries such as Italy and Germany have proven, biogas could be a companion to the decarbonization of the European economy and Europe’s energy transition. The Renewable Energy Sources Directive (“RED II”) includes an EU-wide legal renewable energy target of 32% renewable energy by 2030, with specific targets from the Ministry including increasing the share of renewables, with progress to be reviewed in 2023. The heating sector has seen an annual increase of 1.3%, leading to growth in the biogas market.

  • In October 2024, the European Energy Exchange (EEX) will announce the three-month biogas Guarantee of Origin (GO) auction on behalf of the French Ministry. In the tender, the French government sells the GO produced by selected biogas plants that benefit from the state’s support system.

Biogas Market Share, By Region, 2024 (%)

North America, on the other hand, is expected to develop at the fastest rate during the forecast period. The UK dominates the biogas market in Asia-Pacific region. The huge number of market players is operating in the region. The government of Europe is highly investing in the research and development activities for the development of the market. In addition, the private entities are taking initiatives for the growth of the biogas market in Asia-pacific region.

North America is becoming a growing biogas market as U.S. biogas producers learn that these plants are making a real impact nationwide. Biogas is produced by digesting and chemically treating organic matter, but this organic matter can be obtained in many ways. The U.S. manufactures products using detailed specifications, raw materials, and technological advances. Feedstocks, installation information, costs and efficiencies of different conversion devices, and studies on the limitations of pipeline-quality biogas production were used to calculate the energy costs of biogas plants operating on waste, manure, wastewater, and sewage, sludge, and biomass waste feedstocks, this cause growth of biogas market.

Biogas Market Growth Factors

  • Biogas is used as fuel in a combustion engine and converted into an electric generator to power generator to generate electricity, leading to the growth of the biogas market.
  • Once biogas is fully purified, it can be used to power natural gas vehicles (NGV) or dual-fuel vehicles instead of fossil fuels, which will lead to the growth of the biogas market.
  • Stored biogas can replace coal or natural gas to provide clean, renewable, and reliable energy, which will lead to the growth of the biogas market.
  • Biogas is a renewable energy that uses the anaerobic digestion process to convert waste into gas (called biogas), which has led to the growth of the industrial biogas market.
  • Catalytic conversion of a biogas mixture of methane and carbon dioxide to produce methanol with steam has led to the growth of the biogas market.

Source Insights

The municipal segment has held the biggest market share of 45% in 2024. The main source of biogas is municipal waste. The municipal waste includes newspapers, clothing, furniture, bottles, cans, food, and appliances. The municipal waste is also known as garbage that is collected from each and every individual of every locality. The wide range of waste is used for the production of biogas. The municipal waste is found abundantly, which is driving the growth of the segment.

Biogas Market Share, By Source, 2024 (%)

The industrial segment is fastest growing segment during the forecast period. The factories and industries emit toxic gases and harmful waste in large amount. This waste and garbage are considered as industrial waste. Every year around 7.6 billion tons of industrial waste is produced in the U.S. The industrial waste is available on a large scale, which is supporting the growth of the global biogas market over the forecast period.

Application Insights

The electricity segment contributed the highest market share of 32% in 2024. The biogas helps in the production of electricity. The government of developed and developing countries is striving harder for electricity generation in rural areas. The surge in demand for power generation is resulting into the growth of the market for biogas. The country such as India uses biogas on a large scale for the generation of power and electricity.

The upgraded biogas segment is fastest growing segment of the biogas market in 2021. The biogas is converted into other gas such as biomethane with the removal of carbon dioxide and hydrogen from it. This creates premium or high quality of biogas which can be used in various industries and sectors. Thus, this is creating demand for biogas in the global market.
