Compressed Biogas in Africa: Could Cylinder-Based Anaerobic Digestion Unlock a Clean Cooking Revolution?
The potential for a massive increase in anaerobic digestion in Africa is no longer just a theoretical opportunity. It is becoming a practical energy, health and waste-management proposition — especially where new biogas cylinder compression technologies make it possible to distribute clean cooking fuel beyond the immediate site of a biogas plant. Recent meetings between […]
LPG Alternatives for Cooking – Including Biogas and Biomethane
Explore the best alternatives to LPG gas for cooking, such as biogas, biomethane, and electric induction. With global LPG prices rising, discover how tailored energy solutions can transform your kitchen into an eco-friendly space that fits your budget and lifestyle…
UK Biofuel Targets and RTFO Regulations Explained: What Has Changed Since 2018?
UK biofuel targets have changed substantially since the 2018 Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation regulations were introduced. The RTFO UK is no longer best understood simply as a biofuel blending rule for petrol and diesel. It has become a broader low-carbon transport fuel mechanism, increasingly focused on waste-derived fuels, biomethane, recycled carbon fuels, development fuels and […]
Bennamann Biomethane Upgrading: A New Future for UK Farm Biogas Without Gas-to-Grid?
Could medium-sized farms and existing anaerobic digestion plants soon turn raw biogas into useful, fuel-grade biomethane without needing a full gas-to-grid project? That is the inspiring prospect raised by Bennamann’s biomethane upgrading and Bio-CNG refuelling technology. For many years, the UK farm biogas sector has been shaped by subsidy regimes, electricity generation, CHP engines, heat […]

The Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGOs) Scheme and Renewable Gas Guarantees of Origin (RGGOs) Explained
Understanding REGOs and RGGOs is crucial for verifying renewable energy claims. REGOs apply to electricity, while RGGOs cover green gas. Post-Brexit changes impact recognition between UK and EU. Accurately distinguishing these certificates helps assess energy suppliers’ green credentials and addresses common confusion in renewable energy claims…
Hydrogen Production from Biogas: The Reforming Process & Purification Methods
Hydrogen can be produced from biogas through reforming processes like steam, dry, and autothermal reforming. These methods convert methane-rich biogas into hydrogen and syngas. Key benefits include reduced greenhouse emissions and independence from natural gas, with catalyst selection playing a crucial role in efficiency…
Why is Biogas Considered an Excellent Fuel?
Biogas is a clean, renewable energy source offering significant environmental and economic benefits. With high methane content, it is efficient and reliable, addressing waste management while reducing carbon footprints. Discover how biogas is transforming energy production and providing sustainable solutions for the future…
Biogas vs CNG Comparison, Differences & Benefits
Biogas and CNG both primarily consist of methane but differ significantly in origin and environmental impact. CNG, a fossil fuel, is non-renewable and emits carbon when burned, while biogas is renewable, produced from organic material breakdown, and more environmentally friendly, presenting a sustainable alternative…
Harnessing Gas From Grass Verge Cuttings for Sustainable Biogas Energy
Ever wondered what happens to those grass cuttings from roadside verges? They’re often seen as waste, but here’s the exciting part – they’re becoming a valuable energy source. Gas From Grass Verge Cuttings is transforming how we think about renewable energy in the UK. This green innovation helps farmers and local councils turn what was […]
