Biomethane Carbon Capture Could Save ‘Megatonne’ of CO2 per Year

The opportunities for carbon capture from biomethane remain largely untapped but the potential volumes are substantial, according to the UK trade body the Anaerobic Digestion & Bioresources Association (ADBA).

Speaking on a webinar yesterday to coincide with Net Zero Week and ahead of the World Biogas Summit, Dr Gareth Mottram, Policy Lead at ADBA, said, “If we did deploy carbon capture into the existing biomethane injection stock, we could be saving around a megatonnne of CO2 a year already. That’s roughly a million transatlantic passenger journeys – I think the airline industry would have your arm off for that.”

The LCFS Faces a New Political Reality, Plus RNG News from Viridi, Opal Fuels

Amendments to the Low Carbon Fuel Standard approved by the California Air Resources Board late last year went into effect on July 1. CARB implemented the changes after the state’s Office of Administrative Law triggered a procedural delay to clarify some language.

The amendments ratchet up the amount of credits that petroleum fuel producers and refiners must buy, and include an auto-accelerator mechanism to further boost those obligations. The mechanism would kick in if certain targets are met.

RNG Coalition Marks 14 Years of Influencing the Future of Energy

Today marks the 14th anniversary of RNG COALITION, the trade association representing the North American renewable natural gas (RNG) industry. What began in 2011 with a few stakeholders in a nascent industry has become a cornerstone of the continent’s renewable energy foundation and future.

“Fourteen years ago, when we introduced upgraded biogas or biomethane in North America as RNG, few knew what we were talking about,” said Johannes Escudero, founder and CEO of RNG COALITION. “Today, RNG is a recognized commodity that is having a positive impact on our economy and environment — and influencing the future of energy in the United States and around the world.”
