Biomethane: the Smarter Natural Gas
A strong all-rounder, biomethane is the environmentally friendly alternative to fossil-based natural gas. By contrast, biomethane is a renewable gas that can be produced from biowaste and energy crops. It is practically carbon-neutral, keeps natural cycles stable and generates (added) value and jobs in rural areas.
Biomethane can be used to produce renewable electricity and heat as well as a fuel or green gas for private households. Chemically, there is no difference between biomethane and natural gas, meaning it can be transported efficiently via the natural gas grid.
Biomethane for Europe
In Europe, more than 880 plants feed biomethane into the grid – and many more are being developed as we speak. The European biomethane market has great potential; the demand for green gas products is huge. Central and Eastern Europe in particular can benefit from the increasing interest in renewable gas. The future of biomethane production is very promising – with vast agricultural space and unused waste and residue capacities.
We are experts in the European biomethane market – and you can benefit from our comprehensive knowledge. You can rely on us when it comes to trading your biomethane throughout Europe. Find out more here.

SEE FOR YOURSELF
OUR REFERENCE PROJECT IN EASTERN EUROPE
The Landwärme group has accompanied more than 100+ biomethane plants at all project development stages – from planning all the way through to biomethane grid feed-in, utilizing both organic waste and energy crops. In addition, we have carried out feasibility studies for more than 60 biogas plants.
We are also pioneers in the European market. The Landwärme group played a vital role in the successful implementation of the first Eastern European biomethane plant in Kaposvár, Hungary. In addition to an existing biogas plant at the Magyar Cukor sugar production site, a biogas upgrading plant was built at the site with the help of Landwärme. This fully exploits the energy potential of the sugar production’s waste material and residues. Landwärme CE purchases the entire quantity of biomethane and trades it westwards.
