Biogas is a renewable energy source with technological, ecological and economic advantages that allows for energy production 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It can potentially play a significant role in the renewable energy sector along with small-hydro, wind and solar. In addition to its contribution to achieve global climate protection goals, biogas helps to cut energy imports. The decentralized production of biogas energy improves rural infrastructure and diversifies rural income streams.
