Biogas from anaerobic digestion has the potential to significantly offset global fossil fuel use by utilising natural renewable gas, which is circular in the carbon cycle. The process of anaerobic digestion converts organic waste streams into biogas, capturing the associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which can then be used as a renewable energy source.
Several co-benefits are also now being realised through anaerobic digestion, including the enhancement of on-farm regenerative agricultural practices and the production of uniform, nutrient-dense digestate. Additionally, anaerobic digestion offers attractive revenue streams and energy security, making it a sensible option from both a capital investment and sustainability perspective.
