Abstract
In Austria, feed-in tariffs were granted for 13 years. Because of such a flat rate, adjustments to market changes are difficult. Thirteen years are gone, feed-in tariffs expire and production costs are still above exchange price. Balancing electricity production is a promising market for biogas. As well as biomethane as fuel could make a major contribution by lowering CO2 emissions at the transport sector. However, the biogas sector needs political support yet to be able to utilize the advantages in a modern energy sector of the future.
