The biomethane/RNG decree: what provisions does it contain for the conversion of existing biogas plants to biomethane production?
Market and policy
With the new Italian decree, existing biogas plants can also be converted to produce biomethane/RNG. On one condition: that only 70% of the electricity produced continues to benefit from the current incentives. This condition, verified for 3 years, permits the conversion of 30% of the biogas to biomethane with the relevant incentive in CIC certificates. Additionally, in order to receive the CIC certificates a qualification must be requested from GSE. Detailed information on this subject is provided by the Consorzio Italiano Biogas (Italian Biogas Consortium).
