Abschlussbericht: Wechselwirkungen der mehrfachen Förderung von Biomasse in unterschiedlichen europäischen und/oder nationalen Klimaschutzinstrumenten

Summary

This German government document assesses the legal implications of potential 'double support' for biomethane, specifically when it benefits from a zero emission factor in emissions trading systems and simultaneously receives national subsidies. The study concludes that the overwhelming legal arguments suggest this parallel treatment does not constitute impermissible double support. The analysis, completed in November 2024 and published in November 2025, provides legal clarity for the use of biomethane in climate protection instruments.
