The WBA’s world first, radical #MakingBiogasHappen (MBH) programme aims to cut years from the normal time it takes to develop the necessary policies, regulations and standards needed to support any industry.
The Global Biogas Regulatory Framework:
A biogas-specific framework with all the policies, regulations and standards that are needed to realise a high-performing biogas industry at the national level.
The International Anaerobic Digestion Certification Scheme:
An independently audited, biogas-specific certification scheme designed to improve the health, safety, environmental and operational performance.
