Competitive Landscape of the Biogas Market

Major competitors in the competitive landscape of the biogas market are concentrating on technological innovation, strategic alliances, and global expansion. Big businesses like Wärtsilä, EnviTec Biogas AG, and Air Liquide make investments in cutting-edge anaerobic digestion and biogas upgrading technologies in order to increase utilization. Furthermore, local feedstock availability and government incentives are being leveraged by regional players. Competition is getting more fierce as businesses strive to broaden their service offerings and fortify their positions in the global market due to the rising demand for biomethane and renewable energy.

In June 2022, In the UK, Wärtsilä began working on a new Green Gas Mill project that will turn grass into a gas that can be used to heat homes. British energy business Ecotricity, which is committed to combating climate change, is leading the project. The project will be operational in 2023, having begun in April of 2022.

In January 2021, Wärtsilä declared that it would provide two sizable biogas upgrading facilities to various Danish regions. The towns of Kong and Kvaers would host the two factories. Each year, around 40 million Nm3 of biogas would be converted to biomethane by these units. They would supply about 470 gigawatt-hours of green gas energy, which is enough to power over 45,000 cars. By 2022, the plants should start supplying biomethane to the Danish gas system.

Biogas Market Analysis

How are Segments Performing in the Global Biogas Market?

Biogas Market Source Segment Analysis

Based on the source, the municipal segment accounted for xx% of the market share in 2024. Municipal sources dominate biogas production primarily due to the large, readily available volume of municipal solid waste (MSW) and wastewater generated in urban areas. Rowing usage of this municipal solid waste (MSW) in biogas production for reducing landfills and greenhouse gas emissions is expected to support market demand over the forecast period. Anaerobic digesters operate to process municipal waste components made from food scraps, yard debris, and other organic materials to generate biogas. Urbanization and dense populations lead to the generation of vast quantities of MSW and wastewater. This provides a consistent and abundant supply of organic matter for biogas production. Many cities have established infrastructure for managing waste and wastewater, making it easier to integrate biogas production into existing systems. Increasing environmental concerns and regulations around waste management, particularly concerning landfill gas emissions (methane), are driving the adoption of municipal biogas production technologies.

The industrial is the fastest-growing segment in the Biogas Market. Demand for biogas is driven mostly by industrial sources, especially from industries like pulp and paper, food and beverage, and agriculture. These businesses produce a lot of organic waste, such as wastewater, food scraps, and process residues, all of which are perfect for anaerobic digestion. Industries can cut disposal costs, accomplish sustainable waste management, and produce renewable energy for on-site use or sale by turning garbage into biogas. The increasing focus on corporate sustainability programs and circular economy principles makes biogas solutions even more alluring, which increases market demand from industrial sources.

According to Cognitive Market Research, the electricity segment holds the largest share of the market. The biogas market's electricity application segment is expanding significantly because combined heat and power (CHP) systems can effectively turn biogas into energy. Overall energy efficiency is increased by these systems, which produce power and use the waste heat for heating. Grid-connected biogas facilities can offer a reliable energy supply, promoting energy security and diversification. An integral component of the renewable energy environment is power generation from biogas, which is being driven by investments in biogas facilities as well as the growing demand for renewable electricity and government incentives and regulations supporting clean energy.
In the Biogas Market, the vehicle fuel has been expanding at a rapid pace. The market for biogas is expanding in the automobile fuel application area, especially as biomethane becomes more popular as a renewable substitute for conventional fossil fuels. The conversion of biogas into biomethane, which satisfies natural gas regulations and can power trucks, buses, and other vehicles, encourages the use of greener modes of transportation. The transportation industry's adoption of biomethane is being propelled by government incentives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and stricter environmental laws. This change not only promotes energy security but also the shift to sustainable mobility, which makes biogas a crucial part of the car fuel mix.
