One of the most compelling reasons to consider installing a biogas system on your farm is the significant financial savings it can offer. By converting livestock manure and other organic waste into renewable energy, you can generate your own electricity and heat, reducing your reliance on external energy sources and lowering your utility bills. This not only provides immediate cost savings but also offers long-term financial stability by protecting you from fluctuations in energy prices. Moreover, biogas systems enable you to turn waste into a valuable resource, effectively cutting down on waste management costs.

 

In addition to reducing your energy expenses, biogas systems offer the potential to generate extra income. Any surplus electricity produced can be sold back to the grid, creating a new revenue stream for your farm. This can be particularly advantageous in regions with favorable feed-in tariff schemes or renewable energy incentives. Furthermore, various grants and subsidies are available at the regional, national, and EU levels to assist with the initial setup costs of biogas systems. These financial incentives significantly lower the entry barriers, making the investment in biogas technology more accessible and economically viable for livestock farmers.

 

Investing in biogas not only enhances your farm's financial health but also contributes to environmental sustainability and energy independence. By taking advantage of the financial benefits and support mechanisms available, you can transform your farm into a more resilient and profitable operation, while also playing a part in the transition to a greener and more sustainable agricultural sector.

Hello! Some indicative ones could be the Horizon Europe, Innovation Hub, the LIFE programme, etc. 

If you wish a detailed analysis you can apply for our services for free! A dedicated open call will be released in Autumn 2024, and will include a dedicated service guiding you through the available grants and subsidies even in regional/national level! If that falls under you interest, please reach out to me (kalaouzi@qplan-intl.gr), or follow us on social media, where we will announce the official launch!
