Newsroom | Renewable gases: Adapting strategies in a maturing European market
In a recent interview with News Tank, Timothé Husser, Director of Renewable Gases & Bioenergies at Blunomy, provided a clear-sighted analysis of the European renewable gas sector. While the market faces short-term headwinds following years of rapid growth, the fundamental drivers for biomethane, hydrogen, and e-fuels remain stronger than ever.
In this interview, Timothé discussed how European biomethane developers are shifting from rapid expansion to portfolio consolidation amid regulatory delays and pricing pressures, and how the market is evolving from state subsidies toward demand-driven mandates like RED III and FuelEU Maritime. He also highlighted the long-term scaling of complementary technologies such as pyro gasification and power-to-methane, biomethane's growing role in decarbonising maritime and heavy-duty transport, and a pragmatic outlook on green hydrogen and e-fuels focused on heavy industry and targeted off-take mechanisms.
