Biogas made from domestic waste could help to heat 15 million homes every year by 2050, enough to meet the annual gas demand for households across south east England, London and East Anglia. That’s according to new research from gas distribution firm Cadent, which has examined the potential for biogas production to grow significantly over the next thirty years. The report found that black bag domestic rubbish, alongside agricultural waste, energy crops, food waste and sewage, could generate up to 183 TWh of biomethane with the right support. Cadent is looking to work with the Government to explore biomethane as a possible route towards decarbonisation.
