Biogas goes Europe and Biowaste to Energy Conference at the Milano Convention Center MiCo, Italy

However, the European market for biogas plants is still characterised by very different developments in the European countries, ranging from very few installations up to several thousands. This mirrors that biogas production is hence highly dependent on suitable framework conditions which are set-up by national policy makers.
These special events on ‘Biogas goes Europe’ and 'Biowaste to Energy' provide to-date analysis and answers for the further biogas development in Europe.
