Biogas Plant Market Report 2025 | Growth, Trends, and Forecast by 2033

Global Biogas Plant Market Statistics: 40.8 GW by 2033

Summary:

  • The global biogas plant market size reached 23.3 GW in 2024.

  • The market is expected to reach 40.8 GW by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8% during 2025-2033.

  • Europe leads the market, accounting for the largest biogas plant market share.

  • Medium-to-large-scale digesters hold the majority of the market share in the biogas plant type segment due to their ability to produce higher energy output.

  • Agricultural waste exhibits a clear dominance in the biogas plant industry.

  • Wet anaerobic digestion remains a dominant segment in the market, allowing for better methane production and more consistent energy generation.

  • Electricity generation represents the leading application segment.

  • The rising energy demand is a primary driver of the biogas plant market.

  • Waste management and the circular economy are reshaping the biogas plant market.

Industry Trends and Drivers:

  • Rising energy demand:

The expanding population and industries both locally and internationally requires enhanced access to clean energy sources. Conventional energy sources comprised of oil and natural gases and coal demonstrate decreasing productivity across contemporary society due to various reasons such as resource availability deficits together with elevated energy costs. The need for renewable energy resources emerged because of growing demand thus advancing market expansion. Biogas represents the top renewable energy solution among all others. The resource presents flexible adaptability which enables its use for basic needs including heating and lighting as well as powering automobile transportation systems.

  • Environmental concerns:

Biogas serves as the premier answer to tackle climate change according to current evidence. Laboratories at landfills produce methane which presents twice the emission strength of CO2. Underneath biogas plants obtaing methane-free gases from organic materials through anaerobic digestion before output. Bioenergy plants both generate electrical power and valuable foreign money through their operations to support pollution reduction when compared to traditional fossil fuel utilization. The increased pace of urban and industrial growth has reached a point where waste management systems need creation. Biogas plant operations transform waste materials into usable natural resources we need in our everyday lives. Through this process landfills experience reduced pressure thus the environment manages lower incineration levels.

  • Waste management and the circular economy:

It is evident that populations and industries are discharging increased quantities of organic waste including waste food and manure. This surge leads to major wastes management challenges or lapses. However, plants for the production of gaseous fuel, biogas, are a good solution. They help convert waste materials into wealth. With the help of these plants, anaerobic digestion is employed for producing renewable energy from the organic waste. This results into the creation of methane which is perfect for producing electricity and heat or as fuel. They add that apart from eliminating waste disposal issues, this method enhances the circular economy. Furthermore biogas plants help avoid environmental pollution through disposing off waste in the landfill. This action bans methane and also ensures that the waste and climate change goals of the world are met.
