Biogas is a renewable energy source that can produce electricity, heating, or fuel. The gas, consisting primarily of methane and carbon dioxide (CO2), is produced by anaerobic digestion of organic material.

The organic material can be slurry from farms or waste from the food industry. Farmers who supply slurry to the biogas plant get it back after degassing. The waste product after degassing slurry can be used as fertiliser on the fields.

The biogas industry is relatively young and is therefore constantly evolving. New organic sources are being tested, new legal requirements are being introduced, and new biogas plants are being built.
