Building the Foundation for Ireland’s Renewable Gas Market

Ireland has big ambitions for renewable gas, but how is the country progressing towards making it a reality?

Nick Bennett, Acting RGFI CEO, gives a status update on Ireland’s expanding renewable gas ambitions to Enlit journalist, Julia Kramer, in an Energy Transitions podcast episode. He talks about what’s holding back biomethane production, what needs to change to get projects moving and how renewable gas could contribute to Ireland’s energy transition and energy security.

• Ireland’s biomethane targets and the progress made so far;

• What is standing in the way of more projects reaching final investment decisions;

• The policy progress made in Ireland in the past decade and what policies still need to come through;

• Where renewable gas can deliver the greatest value;

• What domestic biomethane could mean for Ireland’s energy security;

• What we can expect from the Irish renewable gas market in 2027.
