The Biogas Efficiency Info Tour is a series of events for professionals in the German biogas sector, created to share experiences, ideas and practical solutions to improve the efficiency of biogas plants. During one of the events, held in Wardenburg, Germany, around 70 experts and plant operators discussed an increasingly relevant question: what happens when EEG support payments come to an end after 20 years? Options include expanding CHP capacity, converting to biomethane production or optimising existing plants. A total of 18 strategies were presented to help plants continue operating in an economically sustainable way. The message is clear: it's best to start planning the future of your plant 3–4 years in advance!
