In the perspective of biomethane market expansion, a need for a flexible European standard on biomethane

drapeau EU

Following the European Commission's request, Biogasmax consortium has drawn recommendations for the establishment of a European standard on biomethane. The aim is to make a proposal to the Committee of European Normalization (CEN) who has been currently working on this issue.


The deliverable called "Perspectives for a European Standard on biomethane : a Biogasmax proposal" reports on stakes and aims of a European standard on biomethane for grid injection or use as a fuel. First steps in the establishment of such a standard are described: as well as current technical specifications on biométhane applied for grid injection or for use in vehicles in main European countries. The report also proposes a series of values for a European technical specification on parameters defining biomethane quality.
