By Feedstock, Organic Residue and Waste led the market, Energy Crops grew fastest

The organic residue and waste segment dominates the market, with the largest share of 77.0%, primarily due to its abundant availability and high biodegradability, making it an ideal feedstock for biogas production. Agricultural residues, animal manure, food waste, and municipal organic waste are generated in genuinely large volumes globally, ensuring a consistent and cost-effective supply of raw materials for anaerobic digestion that kept this feedstock category dominant by a considerable margin.

The energy crops segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.93%, the fastest growth rate among feedstock categories tracked in this market, due to its superior energy yield and consistent quality compared to other feedstocks. Crops including corn, silage, and grasses continue being grown specifically for biogas production to ensure a consistent, regulated supply of raw materials year-round, keeping this feedstock category's growth rate climbing well ahead of the broader, still-dominant organic residue and waste segment.

Biogas Market BPS Share by Feedstock

By Application, Electricity Generation led the market, Vehicle Fuel and RNG grew fastest

Electricity generation led with 34.3% of the biogas market share, due to established grid-sale contracts that provide biogas plant operators with genuinely reliable, predictable revenue streams. The power generation segment continues leading the total global share as several countries turn to gas-fired power plants from coal-fired power plants amid escalating carbon dioxide emission concerns, keeping electricity generation the market's dominant application category.

Vehicle fuel and renewable natural gas is forecast to expand at an 8.58% CAGR, the fastest growth rate among applications tracked in this market. Although transportation currently accounts for a comparatively modest share of overall biogas volume, the landscape could shift as heavy-duty fuel cell trucks and renewable natural gas vehicles edge closer to genuine cost competitiveness with diesel, keeping this application category's growth rate climbing well ahead of the broader, currently-dominant electricity generation segment.
