taastuvgaaside
Taastuvgaaside (Estonian for renewable gases) is a term used to describe a category of gases produced from renewable energy sources or renewable feedstocks intended to replace fossil natural gas in energy systems. The main types include biogas upgraded to biomethane suitable for injection into natural gas networks; renewable hydrogen produced by electrolysis using renewable electricity; and synthetic methane produced via power-to-gas processes by combining hydrogen with captured carbon dioxide.
Power-to-gas technologies store excess renewable electricity by converting it into methane or other methane-like fuels, enabling
Environmental and energy benefits include potential lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions reductions and the ability to decarbonize
Policy and market development are advancing in Europe, with initiatives to integrate renewable gases into energy
