Biomethane is a net-zero emissions fuel alternative to natural gas. As of 2022, Europe is the region with the largest actual production output, at some *** million metric tons per year (MTPA). Meanwhile, the Asia and Oceania region has one of the highest potentials for future biomethane production, at *** MTPA. The source considered existing liquefied natural gas (LNG) infrastructure when extrapolating future biomethane output potential.
