4 Business case scenarios: 1. Biogas Sell biogas/heat from biogas with biogas network 2. Heat Sell heat from biogas with heat network 3. CHP Compensate own energy use and sell electricity 4. Biomethane Feed-in (and sell) biomethane to grid 5. Digestate treatment Avoid (expensive) transport and disposal of manure, produce fertilizer 4
