Biomass gasification as a highway to climate goals
Biomass gasification offers significant opportunities for achieving Dutch climate goals. The technology produces green gas with low carbon intensity and scores better on emissions reduction than anaerobic digestion. The blending requirement effective 2027 further enhances its strategic value.
"Biomass gasification as a highway to achieving climate goals”, compiled by Ruud Paap (New Energy Coalition) and Berend Vreugdenhil (TNO), highlights the role of biomass gasification in achieving national climate goals, particularly in light of the announced blending obligation for green gas. This obligation encourages energy suppliers to reduce CO2 emissions by adding sustainably produced green gas to the regular natural gas grid. The white paper offers concrete solutions for meeting national energy and climate obligations.
