Our events
As part of our ongoing responsibility to enable the biogas and anaerobic digestion industry to realise its full potential, WBA is developing an ongoing series of market reports, technical webinars and associated guidance notes, and sector-focused policy briefings. Below is the preliminary schedule of events. As a membership organisation we are keen to hear suggestions as to which areas you would like to know more about, in regard to markets, technology or process. Please contact Robert Zlokower at WBA.

Report Launch
Biogas: Pathways to 2030
Often overlooked, organic waste represents a key sector in urgent need of decarbonisation. By simply managing these important bioresources more effectively we can cut global GHG emissions by 10% by 2030. Our forthcoming report “Biogas: Pathways to 2030” will map out how.
