Biogas Convention
Nürnberg, Germany

16 Feb. 2016 - 18 Feb. 2016

Biogas is a main stakeholder among the renewables. Because biogas is not bound to a season, to weather or a time of day. Biogas can supply energy whenever it is needed. And at an impressive scale: 12 Gigawatt reliable power can be supplied by over 8,000 biogas plants in this country. This corresponds to about one fifth of the
German average load.

The Biogas Convention will be hosted by the German Biogas Association. With more than 4,700 members, the is the largest German and European Body representing the interests of the biogas sector. It represents manufacturers of biogas plants and components, planners and agricultural and industrial Biogas plant owners throughout Germany. The object of the association’s work is to enlarge the production and use of biogas for the nationwide generation of electricity, heat and fuel production, to strengthen the industrial location Germany and to develop an effective climate protection.
