- BIOMETHANE DAY IRELAND
Wednesday, June 25, 2025
Radisson Blu Royal Hotel,
Golden Ln, Dublin 8, D08 VRR7,
Dublin, Ireland
Almost a year has passed since the launch of the Irish National Biomethane Strategy, which set an ambitious goal: producing up to 5.7 TWh of biomethane annually by 2030, meeting 10% of Ireland’s gas demand, and supporting the development of 140 to 200 anaerobic digestion (AD) plants across the country. It’s a bold vision—but how far have we come?
Join us on June 25th in Dublin for the first-ever Biomethane Day Ireland, organised by the Biomethane RNG Channel – the leading media platform dedicated to biomethane.
This one-day conference is your chance to:
-Hear from top experts, policymakers, and industry leaders;
-Discover what’s driving biomethane development in Ireland and across Europe;
-Explore the latest technologies and success stories.
-Network with key players in energy, agriculture, and waste management;
From European benchmarks to Irish realities, from feedstock to ESG strategies—Biomethane Day Ireland brings the full picture to one stage.
Don’t miss your chance to join this important conversation and connect with the people making biomethane happen in Ireland!
