According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, “Organic Biogas Market,” The organic biogas market size was valued at $10.7 billion in 2021, and organic biogas industry is estimated to reach $19.7 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2022 to 2031.
Biogas is a renewable and environmentally friendly energy source generated through the anaerobic digestion of organic matter, such as food waste, animal manure, wastewater, and sewage. This natural process occurs when microorganisms break down organic material in the absence of oxygen, either within natural environments like the digestive systems of animals or engineered containers called digesters. The resulting biogas is rich in methane, making it flammable and capable of producing a deep blue flame, which can be harnessed as a versatile energy source.
Widely recognized as renewable natural gas, biogas is continuously replenished as humans and animals produce organic waste. It is commonly used in rural areas for cooking and has broader applications including electricity generation, water and room heating, and as an alternative to compressed natural gas (CNG) in vehicles. These diverse uses highlight biogas’s potential to support sustainable energy solutions while reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

The growth of the organic biogas market is primarily driven by increasing environmental awareness and growing concerns over the depletion and environmental impact of fossil fuels. Rapid infrastructure development, coupled with rising energy demand from commercial and industrial sectors, has accelerated the construction of biogas production facilities. Additionally, stringent pollution regulations and a heightened focus on environmental conservation have encouraged the use of organic waste for biogas production, which is increasingly utilized in power generation and transportation applications.
However, the organic biogas market faces several challenges that could restrain its growth. The production process can release harmful compounds and air pollutants, such as carbon monoxide (CO), which may negatively impact the environment and limit market expansion. Moreover, the anaerobic digestion process used in biogas generation poses risks of soil and water contamination, especially when managed improperly in landfill settings.
Another significant barrier to market growth is the high capital investment required to establish biogas production plants and implement the necessary technology. The upfront costs and operational complexities involved in setting up efficient biogas systems can discourage potential investors and slow down market penetration, particularly in regions with limited financial resources or technological expertise.
China leads the IEA bioenergy member countries with over 100,000 biogas plants, making it a pioneer in biogas development. Key feedstocks include kitchen waste, livestock manure, and energy crops, with recent efforts to promote yellow straw as well. Unlike Europe, about two-thirds of biogas plant revenue in China comes from organic fertilizer, and one-third from energy production. While many small-scale plants exist, the government is now encouraging larger agricultural biogas facilities to boost renewable energy and improve water and air quality.
Germany stands as the largest biogas fuel producer in Europe, with over 10,000 biogas plants operating as of 2020. The country hosts half of the continent’s methanisation facilities. According to the German Environment Agency, about 80% of the organic material used in Germany’s biogas industry is sourced from crops specifically cultivated for biogas production. This focus on dedicated energy crops highlights Germany’s advanced and industrialized approach to biogas compared to other regions.
