Unlocking the potential of biogas

In this episode of the ClimateTech Podcast, we explore the untapped potential of biogas as a renewable energy solution— looking at experiences from Brazil and research from Africa. From household systems to industrial-scale applications, biogas offers a powerful way to reduce emissions, improve waste management, and support energy access.

Guests:

Yuri Schmitke, President of the Brazilian Association of Waste Energy Recovery (ABREN), who shares insights from Brazil’s national biogas strategy and upcoming biomethane mandate.
Dr. Solomon Eghosa Uhunamure, postdoctoral fellow at the University of Cape Town, who brings a research-based perspective on biogas adoption in South Africa.

This episode is produced through the Smart Energy Solutions for Africa (SESA) project, funded by the European Union.
