The National Fertilizer Plan: an opportunity to drive the circular economy through biomethane
The future of fertilizers in Spain does not solely depend on producing more. It depends on making better use of the resources we already have. The decision by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food to open a participatory process for the development of the future National Fertilizer Plan represents a strategic opportunity to strengthen […]
Europe wants to speed up energy permitting. Spain should not wait
The energy transition is also decided by administrative timelines. Europe has mature technologies, capital ready to invest, and projects capable of cutting emissions, improving energy security, and generating economic activity across the territory. However, a significant share of these investments still runs into permitting procedures that are excessively long, fragmented, and hard to predict. The […]
Water will be one of the main factors of competitiveness in the coming decades. Biomethane is also part of the solution.
Biomethane is also strategic in the management of water as a resource The conversation about water has definitively changed. For years, water scarcity was addressed almost exclusively from an environmental perspective. Today, it is also beginning to be analyzed from an economic and business point of view. A recent MSCI report estimates that water scarcity […]
The future of Biofertilizers also involves accelerating Biomethane
There will be no national biofertilizer strategy without an effective strategy to unblock biomethane projects The Government’s announcement of a State Fertilizer Plan for the first quarter of 2027 opens a significant opportunity for the Spanish agri-food sector. After several years marked by energy market volatility and the rising cost of mineral fertilizers, Spain is […]
The energy transition is also a matter of timing.
The energy transition is also a matter of timing. For many months, we have been hearing how Royal Decree-Law 18/2026 incorporates a novel step for the development of renewable energies—especially electricity, storage, and biomethane: the implementation of the Seal of Excellence, an instrument designed to recognize projects that provide greater environmental, social, and territorial value.

Biomethane and territory: when the benefits stop being a promise and become a reality
When projects respond to real local needs and are developed through dialogue and planning, biomethane stops being a promise and becomes a solution.
AI, data centers, and renewable gases: why biomethane is gaining relevance in the new European energy strategy
Artificial Intelligence is redesigning the European energy system and opening a strategic opportunity for biomethane Europe has just taken a step that will likely have more impact on the future of the energy system than we appreciate at first glance. The European Commission has presented its new roadmap for digitalization and artificial intelligence in the […]
The European Commission prepares the equivalent of sustainability certificates for biofertilizers
“The new Fertilizer Action Plan opens the door to mandatory markets, bio-based content requirements, and new revenue streams for biomethane plants.” On May 19, 2026, the European Commission published the Fertilizer Action Plan: Alliance to ensure availability, affordability, and strategic autonomy in EU self-produced fertilizers (European Commission, May 19, 2026). In strategic terms, this document […]
