Renewable natural gas (RNG) is a renewable fuel made from organic waste and biomass instead of fossil reserves. In most cases, RNG is essentially the same as biomethane: biogas that has been cleaned and upgraded until it can be used in much the same way as conventional natural gas. Instead of coming from fossil reserves underground, renewable natural gas is …

Meva is teaming up with Swiss Steel to explore decarbonization solutions for high-temperature heat processing
Industrial activities requiring heat above 1,000°C remains one of the most difficult parts of heavy industry to decarbonize. Against this backdrop, Meva Energy and Swiss Steel have launched a joint feasibility study to assess how renewable biosyngas can complement their use of natural gas in a walking beam furnace at Swiss Steel’s plant in Emmenbrücke, Switzerland. Our ambition is to …
Meva Energy joins the Swedish-German Cleantech Platform
Meva Energy has joined the Swedish-German Cleantech Platform, a one-year program supporting selected Swedish cleantech companies in their expansion to Germany. We are one of nine companies chosen for this year’s cohort. Over the coming months, the platform brings us together as a Swedish cleantech cluster and provides a clear path forward – from a shared kickoff and a defined …
What is a biogas power plant?
A biogas power plant taps into a simple natural process: organic material breaks down, releases gas, and that gas becomes usable energy. Instead of letting waste or leftover biomass sit unused, a biogas plant captures this energy and turns it into heat and electricity. The raw material can be almost anything organic – food waste, crop residues, manure, or other …
Oat husks are being tested as feedstock for biosyngas and biochar production
Sweden’s has a strong agricultural sector that produces large volumes of by-products every year, including oat husks, straw, and crop residues. Much of this material remains unused, despite its considerable potential as a resource with high energy content. Meva Energy has developed a technology that replace fossil gas in industrial applications by producing biosyngas through gasification of biomass residues. Until …
