Installed capacity of biogas energy worldwide reached some 21.4 gigawatts in 2023. This was represents a small decline from the previous year which represents the peak from the period in consideration. Biogas is mixture of gases essentially derived from the anaerobic digestion process. It is mainly composed of methane, which has thermal properties that allow it to easily combust, as well as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide.
