Recorded live at the European Biogas Conference during European Biomethane Week 2025, this special episode of The Circular Coffee Break explores how biogas and biomethane are driving Europe’s transition to a truly circular economy.
Biomethane connects energy, waste management, and nutrient recovery — turning residues into clean energy and valuable resources. In this episode, policymakers, researchers, financiers, and innovators share how Europe can scale biomethane to strengthen competitiveness, resilience, and climate neutrality.
Featuring insights from:
- Daniel Mes (European Commission) on how biomethane fits into Europe’s competitiveness and clean industrial strategy.
- Mats Eklund (Linköping University) on the science of circular systems and industrial symbiosis.
- Oriol Bellot Miana (European Investment Bank) on the role of finance as an enabler of circular infrastructure.
- Simon Ford (Celtic Bioenergy) on expanding the feedstock base with advanced pre-treatment technologies.
- Mia Shaw (RAFT Energy / Real Zero) on maximizing efficiency and accelerating the energy transition.
- Louise Parlons Bentata (Bluemethane) on capturing residual methane and closing the final loop.
- Piero Gattoni (Consorzio Italiano Biogas / European Biogas Association) on circularity in agriculture and Italy’s leadership in biomethane production.
Together, their stories show how biomethane is not just another renewable fuel, but a circular connector — linking energy, waste, and nutrient recovery in a single, regenerative system. From expanding feedstocks to optimizing processes and recovering every last molecule of methane, the sector is redefining what sustainable growth can look like.
🎧 Tune in to learn how biomethane is helping Europe accelerate its transition to a circular economy, where nothing is wasted and everything has value.
