Micro-gas grids - an innovative approach for bio-methane production?

Bio-methane production makes spatial and temporal decoupling of biogas production and utilization possible allowing for optimized use of energy from biogas. Nevertheless the technology is usually not applicable in regions characterized by small-scale agriculture due to heavy reliance on large inputs of energy crops. The overall objective is to investigate under which technical framework conditions the concept features of micro-gas grids can energetically optimize the bio-methane utilization pathway and how this insight can be used to speed up the integration of smallscale plants into the bio-methane market. In a first research step the Cumulative Energy Demand (CED) approach is to be applied. The parameters of the micro-gas grid model to be used in the CED have been calculated on the basis of literature data and information gained from expert interviews.

Bio-methane production makes spatial and temporal decoupling of biogas production and utilization possible allowing for optimized use of energy from biogas. Nevertheless the technology is usually not applicable in regions characterized by small-scale agriculture due to heavy reliance on large inputs of energy crops. The following study investigates the potential of micro-gas grids to integrate small-scale biogas plants characterized by higher feedstock share in bio-waste and manure into the bio-methane market. For assessment of technical parameters related to the energetic performance of the micro-gas grid concept, the quantitative methodology Cumulative Energy Demand (CED) approach is applied. Therefore a micro-gas grid model was developed that is to be compared with a reference model (conventional bio-methane production from a large-scale biogas plant).
