Why invest in biogas?

Envitecpolis has helped hundreds of farms and businesses implement profitable and environmentally sustainable investments. A biogas investment can be tailored to the specific needs of your farm, whether your aim is to produce electricity and heat for your own use, produce biomethane or potentially sell energy in the future.

 

A farm-scale biogas plant can process materials such as slurry and field biomass, including grass. The biogas produced can be used directly to generate electricity and heat or upgraded into biomethane. The process also produces a nutrient-rich digestate with very little odour, which can be used effectively as fertiliser. This can improve nutrient self-sufficiency on the farm and reduce emissions associated with fertiliser use.

 

A biogas investment can also improve security of supply by reducing dependence on externally purchased production inputs and exposure to fluctuations in market prices. At the same time, it represents a concrete step towards lower-carbon and more sustainable agricultural production.

Envitecpolis has extensive expertise in agricultural investment support and the requirements related to biogas investments. We help you make effective use of agricultural investment support schemes, which may cover up to 50% of the eligible costs of a biogas plant. Depending on the scale of the project, supported investments may typically range, for example, from €500,000 to €2.5 million.

 

We support you throughout the entire investment process, from initial planning and funding applications to implementation and commissioning. Contact us to explore which biogas solution would be the right fit for your farm.
