On Saturday, November 30, the biomethane plant of Azienda Agricola Bagnod was officially inaugurated, with ENGIE proudly participating as a partner. Acting as a Green Midstreamer, ENGIE has secured a long-term purchase agreement for biomethane and Guarantees of Origin eligible under the EU-ETS framework. This pioneering facility—the first of its kind in Italy under the 2022 Ministerial Decree—began producing biomethane for industrial use on October 2, 2024. It represents a significant step forward in Italy’s renewable energy transition, showcasing innovation and sustainability in action.
ENGIE’s Commitment to the Biomethane Market
This inauguration underscores ENGIE’s steadfast commitment to expanding the biomethane market in Italy. As a leader in the energy transition, ENGIE bridges the gap between producers and consumers, fostering a sustainable ecosystem. Our ambitious target of trading 30 TWh of biomethane by 2030 highlights our determination to accelerate decarbonization efforts while supporting renewable energy solutions tailored to industry needs.
Partnership for Sustainable Growth
The collaboration with Azienda Agricola Bagnod aligns perfectly with ENGIE’s vision of sustainable growth and low-carbon energy solutions. By investing in partnerships and innovative projects like this, ENGIE reinforces its role in Italy’s energy transformation. Together, we are advancing the industrial sector’s decarbonization journey and fostering the development of a robust biomethane value chain.
Expanding Across Europe
Beyond Italy, ENGIE is making strides in scaling its biomethane portfolio across Europe. With 5 TWh supplied last year, we continue to strengthen our position as a key player in the renewable energy sector, contributing to the continent’s broader energy transition goals. ENGIE’s innovative approach, supported by local partnerships and expertise, ensures a sustainable and resilient energy future for all.
Pioneering the Future of Energy
ENGIE’s role in Italy’s first biogas-to-biomethane plant is a testament to our leadership in renewable energy innovation. By collaborating with forward-thinking partners and leveraging our expertise, we remain at the forefront of building a more sustainable and low-carbon energy future across Europe and beyond.
