International Biogas Congress & Expo Brussels

The International Biogas Congress & Expo is a renowned industry event that has evolved since its inception in 2007 into a key meeting point for experts and professionals in the biogas sector. Held annually in the prestigious setting of the Hotel Le Plaza in Brussels, the centrally located venue provides ideal conditions for technical exchange at the European level.

Organized by Woodcote Media Ltd.—a seasoned event organizer closely connected to the industry through the trade journal Bioenergy Insight—the congress is dedicated to promoting sustainable technologies and services. It focuses specifically on biogas technologies and services across the entire value chain, from anaerobic digestion and efficiency improvements in production to cutting-edge methods for biogas upgrading, biomethane generation, and injection into the gas grid.

A particular emphasis is placed on the use of biogas as a sustainable fuel, especially in the form of bio-LNG and bio-CNG, with applications in heavy-duty transport, public transit, and maritime shipping. The event also addresses the political and regulatory landscape, including current national and international frameworks such as the Renewable Energy Directive (RED III) and the German Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG), as well as financing and subsidy models.

The program is further enriched by forward-looking approaches, such as the integration of biogas into the circular economy—especially through the use of organic waste from agriculture, the food industry, and wastewater treatment plants. The potential of biogas in connection with the hydrogen economy and its role in sector coupling, for example in industrial processes or heat supply, is also a topic of in-depth discussion.

The International Biogas Congress & Expo is frequently held alongside the Biofuels International Conference & Expo, allowing for interdisciplinary exchange and offering new perspectives for synergies and business models within the bioenergy sector.

With its strong practical orientation, excellent networking opportunities between industry and policy, and comprehensive presentation of the latest technologies, market trends, and international best practices from Europe, North America, and Asia, the event serves as a specialized forum that showcases innovative solutions and provides key impulses for advancing the biogas industry.

The International Biogas Congress & Expo will take place on 2 days from Tuesday, 24. June to Wednesday, 25. June 2025 in Brussels.
