Introduction The role of biomethane in the European energy market is about to change. Energy from biomass makes a significant contribution towards reaching the EC targets for renewable energies by 2020. And the field of application can still be expanded. As biomethane features the same characteristics as natural gas the possibilities of usage are many. At the moment the development in this field is slow or in many European countries still has to be initiated. The GreenGasGrids project aims to support the biomethane market, help ‘starter’ countries to establish the technology and thereby increase the European biomethane production. Accordingly, throughout the duration of the project the following measures are undertaken: Hand-on know-how transfer to ‘starter’ countries Support finding solutions to market barriers Bring together potential business partners Promotion of biomethane in the countries with high potential but few activities. Aim of National Feed-In Info days In course of the GGG project a total of two national feed-in Info days will be held in each of the partner countries. The aim of the Info Days is bring together national stakeholders of different areas of expertise and to inform them about the opportunities the biomethane production presents. For the forerunner countries (Austria, Germany, France, The Netherlands, United Kingdom) these Info Days present the opportunity for business match-making, bringing together stakeholder and discussion of the current and future situation of the national biomethane market. For the starter countries (Croatia, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Slovakia) the Info Days have the aim to provide decision-makers with technical and legislative advice for the implementation of biomethane projects. Further the occasion should be used for knowledge transfer from experts of forerunner countries to the stakeholders of the starter countries. By XXXX 2013 the second National Info Days – based on the experience of the first National Info Day and taking the progress of the project into consideration - were carried out in each of the partner countries. The main topics - dealt with at the second National Info Days - result from the ongoing work and the thereby upcoming issues. Of course technical progress or upcoming new technologies – if given – are taking into account as well. The following report gives a summary of each event and presents the results and conclusions obtained. The programme of each of Info Day, the presentations held and the list of participants can be downloaded in the respective country section of the project website www.greengasgrids.eu. Page 4 of 34
