Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will make it his policy to use biomethane energy production facilities to reduce carbon emissions.

The Heat and Buildings Strategy and the Net Zero Strategy published in 2021 are clear on the need to increase the proportion of biomethane injected into the gas grid. Government launched the Green Gas Support Scheme in November 2021 providing tariff-support for biomethane produced via anaerobic digestion and injected into the gas grid.
