Circular and Organic
Clean Energy Transition

RF BioEnergy aims to play a leading role in the transition towards a renewable circular economy, global carbon neutrality and clean energy security.

BioGas

“There is no Net Zero without BioGas”  (Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association, ADBA).

Net Zero Carbon targets for 2030 and 2050 will ensure the BioGas market will continue to expand for many years, with strong regulatory support within the EU (RePower EU) and the United States.

BioGas is a high-energy gas mixture produced by the natural breakdown of organic food waste (commercial, industrial, or residential food waste), agricultural waste (livestock manures and litter), and crop residues, through microorganisms in the absence of oxygen (Anaerobic Digestion). BioGas includes sewage gas, digester gas, and landfill gas. Many BioGas facilities produce a pipeline-quality end product of BioMethane or Renewable Natural Gas (RNG), which is BioGas that has gone through a further step of refinement.

BioGas has a wide variety of high-demand use cases in Power, Heating (Green alternative to fossil-derived natural gas), Transportation (Bio-CNG or LNG), Shipping and Aviation (Sustainable Aviation Fuel), Bio-CO2 (used by Food & Beverage or Pharmaceuticals industries) and in the production of Green Hydrogen.  Biogas is also be used to generate renewable electricity.

The anaerobic digestion process produces a valuable byproduct known as digestate, which is used extensively as a Biofertilizer, thereby completing the loop in the unique circular nature of the process.

Global Operations - Local Presence

RF BioEnergy has strategic partnerships with the leading operators of AD Biogas plants in the UK, Ireland, and Continental Europe, as well as with market-leading technical equipment providers, centres of Research and Development (Imperial College London), and other experts in the design, development, construction, operations and management of BioGas plants.

We have also forged a cutting-edge path in the management and procurement of organic waste and agricultural crop/crop residue feedstocks for Biogas plants, with the aim of generating 4 TWh of Clean BioEnergy by 2030.

REPowerEU Plan:

Driven Towards Energy Transition

  • Production of 35 billion m3 of BioMethane (by 2030) from Waste and Residue.   

  • This will require at least 2,500 new AD BioGas plants in the EU

  • Accelerate H2 consumption in the EU from 5MT (2022) to 20MT (2030), of which at least 50% to be produced in Europe

Diversification of Energy Sources and Efficiency

  • New renewable penetration target of 45% by 2030

  • Increase the use of Energy Efficiency Design (EED) to 13% by 2030.

  • Reduce dependency on Russian gas.

  • Development of a community shopping platform for gas, LNG and H2.

  • Energy alliances between European partners.

  • Interconnections for a more resilient energy system.
