Green gas research in the Netherlands

This publication was prepared on behalf of TKI Nieuw Gas, in collaboration with the Platform Groen Gas, Platform Hernieuwbare Brandstoffen, New Energy Coalition, InVesta, universities of applied sciences (Saxion, Hanze University of Applied Sciences, Avans University of Applied Sciences), TNO, and Wageningen University & Research. The aim of this publication is to connect businesses, governments, and knowledge institutions and stimulate collaboration on the production and application of green gas.

Authors Frans Debets and Ruud Paap, through interviews with sixteen researchers, have created an overview of current projects, technologies, and expertise in the field of sustainable energy from residual flows. It highlights existing innovations, emerging challenges, and the role green gas can play in the energy transition.
