From Waste to Energy: How Biomethane Is Changing the Game

As the world rapidly seeks sustainable energy sources, biomethane stands out as one of the most promising solutions for decarbonizing industry and strengthening energy stability.
Produced by processing agricultural residues, food industry waste, and manure, biomethane simultaneously reduces CO₂ emissions and promotes the circular use of resources.

Its potential and role in the regional energy mix will be discussed during a panel session at the SEE ENERGY 2025 – Connect & Supply conference (October 28–29, 2025, Master Center, Novi Sad), which will bring together representatives of companies and institutions dedicated to the development of biomethane technologies.
One of the key participants will be Marko Radin, Sales Manager at BIOGEST®, who will share practical experience and present innovative solutions and technologies for biomethane production in the region.

Austrian Technology, Global Results

BIOGEST®, headquartered in Austria, is one of the leading international manufacturers of biogas and biomethane plants.
With more than 30 years of experience, presence in over 20 countries, and more than 200 successfully implemented projects, BIOGEST has developed and applied its proprietary PowerRing technology, known for its high efficiency and reliability.

Its integrated approach covers all phases — from project development and planning, through co-investment and turnkey construction, to the operation of its own plants under the BIOP (Own Plant Operations) model.

One of the company’s most renowned projects is located in the Fucino Valley in Italy, where over 75,000 tons of agricultural residues are processed annually, including poultry manure and vegetable processing waste such as fennel.
This innovative plant produces 500 Nm³ of biomethane per hour, enough to supply around 3,800 households per year with renewable energy.
In addition, the facility produces organic fertilizer for local agriculture and food-grade CO₂ as a valuable by-product.

Thanks to its contribution to sustainability, the Collarmele plant has been recognized internationally, ranking among the top three finalists in the “Net Zero Circular Solutions” category at the AD & Biogas Industry Awards 2025.

Circular Economy in Action

BIOGEST plants are designed as closed-loop systems — waste becomes a resource, greenhouse gas and nitrogen emissions are reduced, and local communities are strengthened through cooperation with farms and shorter transport chains.
The planned installation of photovoltaic systems will further contribute to energy self-sufficiency and operational efficiency.

Biomethane as a Pillar of the Energy Transition

The panel “Biomethane – Potential and Application in the Regional Energy Mix” at SEE ENERGY 2025 will showcase how biomethane can become a key element of the region’s energy transition.
Participants will present best practice examples, financing models, and technical solutions that are already transforming the energy landscape of Serbia and the Western Balkans.

Marko Radin from BIOGEST will share insights on the implementation of biomethane projects and the role of innovation in accelerating the shift toward sustainable energy sources.

Biomethane is no longer the energy of the future – it is the energy of today, demonstrating how knowledge, technology, and cooperation can build a more secure and greener economy.
