Our Biomethane Business
Your experienced biomethane partner
With our Biomethane Sourcing teams operating in the Danish gas trading and certificate market for 15+ years, we’ve built first-hand experience and taken a front-line position in the development of biomethane sourcing, working actively across multiple markets and providing long-term Green Gas Purchase Agreements alongside short-term solutions to a wide range of partners and customers.
Most recently we’ve expanded our biomethane capabilities to the UK and Netherlands, handling trading, nomination, and transportation of green gas – helping businesses reach their green gas procurement strategies, reducing emissions, and supporting security of supply in a high-demand low-supply gas scenario.
We’re focused on accelerating the development and demand for low-carbon fuels, supporting decarbonisation of hard-to-abate sectors, and enabling these businesses to deliver on their green procurement strategies.

Biomethane plays a vital role in security of supply
Shortages in natural gas supplies to Europe have highlighted the role of biomethane as an important contributor to gas security of supply, and as greater shares of renewables continue to enter the grid, biomethane will play its role as a key provider of both baseload generation, low-carbon balancing and flexibility as well as an alternative renewable fuel for hard-to-abate industries.
Beyond pioneering in the renewables and energy trading space, Denmark is also a global leader on injection of sustainable biomethane in the gas grid to replace natural gas. Just within the last few years significant progress has been made in this field, where the share of biogas in the Danish gas grid has doubled from 17% to 34% from Dec 20 – Dec 21.
