Helping industries lead the energy transition, today.
Carbon reduction without compromise.
At Future Biogas, we’re a UK leader in the design, development, construction and operation of Anaerobic Digestion (AD) plants that produce clean, sustainable biomethane.

By converting locally grown rotational energy crops into biogases, Future Biogas supports local farmers, a circular economy and the transition to a low-carbon future, whilst giving companies a viable route to decarbonise their operations.

Biogas

Not just renewable. Responsible.

With a focus on innovation, sustainability, and rural partnerships, Future Biogas enables organisations to reduce emissions, enhance energy security, and meet net-zero goals. We achieve this through reliable, scalable, and environmentally responsible biogas solutions that can displace fossil fuels today without the need to change existing infrastructure.

Why Future Biogas?

For over 15 years, Future Biogas has been one of the largest developers, owners and operators of anaerobic digestion plants in the UK. Today, our biomethane delivers more than 10% of all biomethane injected directly into the UK gas network.

Real Decarbonisation Without Disruption

Biomethane offers a powerful way for organisations to cut emissions immediately without costly infrastructure changes or operational downtime. As a direct, renewable substitute for natural gas, it can be used in existing systems and processes — helping businesses decarbonise heat and energy use today, while still pursuing electrification and efficiency improvements where possible. It’s a practical, scalable step toward Net Zero that delivers real impact, right now.

A Trusted, Long-Term Partner

We believe the best outcomes come from genuine win-win partnerships — where transparency, fairness, and shared ambition underpin everything we do. We build long-term relationships based on trust, collaboration, and mutual success, ensuring that every project delivers value for our partners, our communities, and the planet.

Unsubsidised and Fully Additional

We’re focused on ensuring that every new biogas project we bring online delivers genuine additionality — creating new, sustainable energy capacity that strengthens the UK’s low-carbon infrastructure. By developing unsubsidised projects, we’re enabling corporate partners to take ownership of their own decarbonisation journeys, complementing government-supported initiatives while reducing reliance on public funding.

With Carbon Capture We Go Further

By integrating Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) into our biogas process, we’re looking to take renewable energy a step beyond carbon neutrality. Capturing and permanently storing the biogenic CO2 released during upgrading means we won’t just avoid emissions — we can actively remove carbon from the atmosphere. This turns our plants into carbon-negative facilities, helping to reverse the effects of climate change while producing the reliable, renewable energy the UK needs to reach Net Zero.

Project Carbon Harvest is the UK’s first unsubsidised biomethane initiative, marking a major step in decarbonising the national energy system. It produces biomethane from locally grown sustainable crops and feeds it into the national grid, providing a secure, domestic, renewable alternative to fossil gas. The project also supports UK farmers by improving crop rotations and reducing dependence on fossil-based inputs, helping balance energy security, food production and soil health.

Our advanced process results in three valuable resources:

  • Biomethane – CH4 (renewable green gas)
  • Biogenic carbon dioxide – CO2 (biogenically derived carbon dioxide)
  • Biofertiliser (also known as digestate)

Cultivating Net Zero

At its core, anaerobic digestion is a natural biological process. As plants grow, they absorb CO from the atmosphere and convert it into organic compounds through photosynthesis. Once harvested, crop feedstock is fed into anaerobic digesters, where micro-organisms break it down in oxygen-free conditions, producing biogas and leaving a valuable residue called digestate.

Biomethane is not a silver bullet, but does have a key role to play in the energy mix. It is:

  • Often quicker to secure a grid connection than electricity
  • More available and cost effective than hydrogen
  • Still effective for high heat executions
  • Can be a viable feedstock for chemical processes

  • Through strategic partnerships with pioneering businesses and long-term collaborations with farmers, we are enabling meaningful decarbonisation across multiple sectors.

    We actively support and fund sustainable agricultural practices, such as diverse crop rotations, minimal soil disturbance, and the use of digestate – a nutrient-rich, biofertiliser created by anaerobic digestion – boosting soil health and productivity.
