Biogas Upgrading Equipment Global Market Report 2024

The biogas upgrading equipment market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.86 billion in 2023 to $2.17 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.6%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including a rising demand to reduce CO2 emissions, increasing interest in renewable natural gas, heightened investments in biogas infrastructure, growing rural development initiatives, and an increase in public awareness regarding the benefits of biogas as a renewable energy source.

The biogas upgrading equipment market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.93 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.8%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including growing environmental awareness, rising greenhouse gas emissions, increasing demand for cleaner fuel alternatives, the implementation of renewable energy policies, and the continued demand for sustainable fuel sources. Major trends expected during this period encompass new product innovations, technological advancements, a heightened focus on green energy solutions, integration with waste management systems, and the incorporation of power-to-gas technologies.

The rising demand for renewable energy sources is anticipated to drive the expansion of the biogas upgrading equipment market in the foreseeable future. Factors such as environmental concerns, economic considerations, technological advancements, and policy initiatives are contributing to the increasing adoption of renewable energy sources, marking a transition towards a more sustainable and resilient energy landscape. Biogas upgrading equipment plays a pivotal role in unleashing the potential of biogas as a renewable energy source, offering a sustainable solution for organic waste management and facilitating the transition towards a more sustainable and resilient energy system. For example, as reported in April 2023 by the Energy Information Administration (EIA), a US-based Federal Statistical System, renewable energy production and consumption reached record levels in 2022, accounting for approximately 13% of total energy production and consumption, equivalent to 13.4 quads and 13.18 quads, respectively. Notably, hydropower generation and geothermal energy utilization witnessed a 4% increase in 2022 compared to the previous year. Consequently, the escalating demand for renewable energy sources is propelling the growth of the biogas upgrading equipment market.

Leading enterprises operating in the biogas upgrading equipment market are intensifying their focus on developing innovative products tailored to meet the evolving needs of the industry. Examples include VALKYRIE ECO and VALKYRIE ECO FLEX H2S, designed for agricultural biogas and landfill gas (LFG) operations. VALKYRIE ECO serves as a fixed gas detector for continuous monitoring of H2S levels in industrial environments where the presence of this gas poses health and safety risks. On the other hand, VALKYRIE ECO FLEX H2S is a portable gas detector offering flexibility in monitoring H2S levels across various work environments. For instance, in May 2023, Streamline Innovations Inc., a US-based manufacturer of gas detection and monitoring equipment, introduced VALKYRIE ECO and VALKYRIE ECO FLEX H2S, specifically designed for H2S treatment in biogas-to-RNG (renewable natural gas) upgrading applications. These solutions provide an efficient and environmentally friendly H2S removal solution for upgrading biogas to RNG, utilizing TALON, a non-toxic and biodegradable redox chemistry. Moreover, their modular design enables users to scale up treating capacity gradually based on different LFG gas stream quantities, enhancing operational flexibility and efficiency.

In February 2023, Shell Petroleum NV, a prominent oil and gas company headquartered in the Netherlands, completed the acquisition of Nature Energy Biogas A/S for a sum of $2 billion. This strategic move serves to augment Shell's portfolio by integrating Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) value chain support and leveraging expertise in biogas plant technology. The acquisition is poised to have a significant impact on the biogas upgrading equipment market, potentially leading to advancements and efficiency enhancements. Nature Energy Biogas A/S, based in Denmark, specializes in the production and upgrading of biogas.
