The energy transition and the Biomethane sector
Responding to the challenges of the energy transition
Committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, as fixed by the Paris Agreement and National Low-Carbon Strategy (SNBC), France and Europe are actively pursuing the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy.
The ambition to achieve energy independence is another driving force behind the development of innovative technologies for biogas production and CO2 reuse.
Key figures
Developing the biogas/biomethan/e-methane sector
Supported by Occitanie’s RÉPOS targets (Positive Energy Region), the biogas sector offers a solution for replacing fossil-derived natural gas with renewable gas in networks.
Biomethane development is a promising lever for decarbonisation:
As a green energy of the future, biomethane offers a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels.
Its exploitation process fully contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The rise of biomethane also brings economic benefits to the territory, alongside energy independence.
