This side event is aligned with the main thrust of the agenda of the COP27 and will bring together gas industry leaders, livestock sector , agricultural associations, waste treatment, etc, and experts to share their views and insights regarding the role of the renewable gases in the pathway to achieve the decarbonization goals set for 2030 and 2050. Decarbonisation of the gas industry can be achieved by adopting different alternative and/or combination of technological and operational practices. The development of the renewable gases can realistically help achieve the net zero targets, but the ramping up of gas decarbonisation still poses numerous challenges. This session will contribute to discuss the broad range of issues related to fostering the decarbonisation of the gas sector through the development of biogas - biomethane and green hydrogen.
