Anaerobic Digester Projects Around the World

Global Methane Initiative logo

AgSTAR collaborates with the Global Methane Initiative (GMI) to promote biogas recovery technologies outside the United States. The GMI’s Biogas Subcommittee facilitates biogas recovery system development in the agricultural sector in countries around the world.

The international community has a long history of working with biogas recovery technologies. GMI offers resources that can be helpful to those interested in anaerobic digester projects in the United States:

  • GMI Database of Methane Sites and Activities, including projects such as:
    • A covered lagoon digester at Juan Diego Farm in Mexico
    • A plug flow digester at Ban Nue Farm in Thailand
  • Reports like this one:
    • A Global Perspective of Anaerobic Digestion Policies and Incentives (pdf) (2.4 MB)
  • Partner Country Action Plans including plans from Argentina, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom
  • International Events, including:
    • GMI Agriculture Subcommittee meetings
