Global biogas market to double in size by 2022 Although a relatively minor player within the overall bioenergy sector, the market for biogas sits at the confluence of a number of forces, including increasing demand for distributed generation, tightening environmental regulations, and accelerating build-out of infrastructure for natural gas and for vehicles powered by natural gas. According to a new report from Pike Research, this fast-growing market reached $17.3 billion in global revenue in 2011 and will nearly double by 2022, hitting $33.1 billion in that year. | Panorama Germany Renewable energy employs close to 400,000 in Germany IRENA cost analysis shows renewable gaining advantage Europe Commission gives boost to renewables, but more post-2020 ambition needed Biogas Antigua and Barbuda Caribbean farmers to benefit from biogas Biofuels Energy-dense biofuel from cellulose close to being economical Corn-to-Ethanol Research Team spending summer spreading word of their efforts Biomass Remarkable expected increase in biomass-for-energy needs forethought Electric/Hybrid Tech-savvy, early adopters of electric vehicles demand advanced in-car telematics In the US, New York State commits $4.4 million to EV charging stations Agenda BIOGAS Asia Pacific Forum - 2012 Smart City Asia Congress 2012 AEBIOM European Bioenergy Conference 2012 |
