The maritime industry is emerging as a potentially significant new market for BioLNG made from biogas and RNG—but how does the maritime fuel market work? This session will explain who buys and sells fuel, how LNG gets to ships, where and how bunkering occurs, what volumes and specifications buyers require, how contracts are structured, and how the carbon value of BioLNG is recognized. Learn what shipowners, operators, and fuel suppliers are looking for and what biogas producers and project developers need to know to access this growing market.

Speakers:

Tom Moffet, Anew Climate

Ashley Duplechein, U.S. Energy

Heather Dziedzic, American Biogas Council

Biogas and biomethane markets are developing rapidly—but the policies, commercial structures and opportunities vary significantly by region. This international market outlook will examine current activity across Europe, Canada, India and the broader Asian market, including policy drivers, project development, pricing, incentives, certification systems and emerging sources of demand. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of where investment and transactions are occurring, which market models are gaining momentum, and what the U.S. biogas industry can learn from developments abroad.

Speakers:

Kerri Ward, Mobius Renewables

Pat Foody, iogen

Josh Martincic, Mobius Renewables

What do recent biogas project transactions tell us about where the industry is headed? Look at the data from real deals to reveal what’s getting built, what the market is valuing, and how project development is evolving.

Then we’ll look ahead. Where will the next opportunities for biogas emerge, and what will drive the next wave of development? From maritime fuels to growing demand in Asia and other overseas markets, we’ll explore the new markets taking shape and what they could mean for biogas developers, investors and the broader industry.

Running a biogas facility requires cash long before every revenue stream is realized. This session will explore practical strategies for managing working capital, controlling operating expenses, planning maintenance and downtime, and navigating delays in commodities, tipping-fee and environmental-credit revenue. Attendees will learn how disciplined cash-flow planning can protect day-to-day operations while supporting long-term asset performance and profitability.

Chris Negus, Global NRG Advisors

Rather than asking simply “What is happening in Washington?”, this session asks the more important business question: “What does federal policy mean for the next project, the next investment, and the next financing decision?” Bringing together perspectives from lending, investment, and project development, panelists will explore how current federal programs, regulatory decisions, tax policy, and policy uncertainty factor into capital allocation, underwriting, project economics, and decisions to move projects toward COD. With significant federal policies affecting the biogas sector—including the Renewable Fuel Standard and the evolving 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit—the discussion will focus on how policy translates into risk, opportunity, and ultimately investment decisions.

Speakers:

Lizzy Reinholt, Peak Renewables

Zach Olson, IFM Investors

Nash Stapleton, XCaliber Capital

Mitch May, Roeslein & Associates

There’s much hope that the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit will reshape the economics of RNG and other low-carbon transportation fuels—but the value of the credit depends heavily on lifecycle carbon intensity and the GREET model. This session will examine the latest 45Z economics, explain how key GREET assumptions influence credit value, and explore which fuels, feedstocks and end markets may benefit, face pressure or require new commercial strategies.
