PrioritieS

Ireland can be a European leader in renewable gas and circular bioeconomy solutions, including organic fertilisers, CO2, and carbon recycling.

RGFI has already laid the foundations, aligning industry and building confidence by commissioning  the Integrated Business Cases and delivering EU partnership projects that kick-started and informed the National Biomethane Strategy.

Our members are currently developing Ireland’s first generation of biomethane projects, representing hundreds of millions of euro in investment, new farm partnerships and industrial decarbonisation opportunities.

To support them RGFI works to:

• Enable policy and regulatory frameworks and remove delivery barriers across planning, permitting and grid, liaising closely with Government representatives and inputting to consultations.
• Support market creation and financial certainty, lobbying for necessary supports as the industry is established.
• Co-ordinate and inform members to provide a strong industry voice, through national and EU working groups, round table discussions, conference, member meetings and industry updates.
