The latest research by Mordor Intelligence covers the “Biogas Market,” delivering insights into market dynamics, industry size, share, drivers of growth, and long-term forecasts.
-- According to the latest research from Mordor Intelligence, the total installed biogas capacity is projected to rise from 21.65 GW in 2025 to 27.30 GW by 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.75 %.
This upward trajectory is underpinned by a growing push toward renewable energy sources, waste management reforms, and government incentives favoring low-carbon fuels. As industries and utilities look to stabilize grids and meet emissions targets, dispatchable sources like biogas-especially when upgraded to renewable natural gas (RNG)-are gaining attention.
This press release outlines key trends, segmentation, major players, and concluding thoughts on where the biogas market is headed between now and 2030.

Key Trends Shaping the Biogas Market
Growth in Smaller / Community-Scale Plants
While midscale (0.5–2 MW) installations still dominate capacity additions, smaller plants under 0.5 MW are expanding faster (8.5 % CAGR projected) as distributed generation incentives and simpler grid connections make them more feasible.
Diversification of Feedstock Sources
Livestock manure continues to lead (≈38 % share in 2024), but food waste is gaining ground with a growth rate around 7.5 % through 2030.
Developers are also using co-digestion strategies that blend agricultural residues, food processing residues, and municipal organic waste to stabilize feedstock supply.
Regional Policy and Market Pull
Europe remains the largest market (≈ 65.88 % share in 2024) thanks to mature infrastructure and favorable regulation. At the same time, South America is expected to post the fastest growth (approx. 10 % CAGR) as newer markets catch up with enabling policy frameworks.
Biogas Market Segmentation:
By Feedstock
- Livestock manure (largest share; ~38 % in 2024)
- Food & beverage waste (fastest growing)
- Agricultural residues and other organic waste streams
By Process / Technology
- Wet anaerobic digestion (≈60 % of installations in 2024)
- Dry/high-solids anaerobic digestion (projected higher CAGR ~8 %)
- Landfill gas recovery systems
By Plant Capacity
- Sub-0.5 MW (community or small scale) - fastest growth (8.5 % CAGR)
- 0.5 to 2 MW (midscale) ~45 % share of installations
- Above 2 MW (large scale) - favored for economies of scale
By Applications:
- Electricity generation (≈52% share in 2024
- Vehicle fuel / RNG (forecast ~9 % CAGR)
- Heat generation and combined heat & power (CHP)
