Waste Management Expands Landfill Gas-to-Energy Facility in Texas
In June 2025, Waste Management, Inc. announced the expansion of its Texas landfill gas-to-energy plant, which now processes over 20 million cubic feet of methane daily. The facility converts landfill gas into RNG injected into national pipelines, supporting U.S. low-carbon fuel standards and boosting energy efficiency through advanced digital monitoring systems.
Veolia Launches Biomethane Upgrading Unit in France
In May 2025, Veolia Environnement S.A. commissioned a landfill gas upgrading unit in France to supply renewable biomethane for local heating and transport networks. The facility integrates real-time monitoring, modular scalability, and high-purity gas treatment systems, underscoring Europe's growing investment in renewable fuels.
Waga Energy Expands RNG Projects in North America
In March 2025, Waga Energy announced three new RNG upgrading projects across North America. Using its patented WAGABOX® technology, the company aims to produce pipeline-grade biomethane from landfill gas with a combined annual output exceeding 90 GWh, supporting local utilities and industrial users.
Landfill Gas Market Forecast 2035
The market is expected to create an incremental opportunity of USD 3.0 billion between 2025 and 2035.
North America will remain the largest market, supported by strong landfill infrastructure, methane reduction regulations, and renewable energy credits.
Europe will maintain steady growth driven by the EU Methane Strategy, feed-in tariffs, and the integration of landfill gas into heating and transport sectors.
Asia-Pacific will see rising investment in landfill gas-to-energy projects across China, India, and Japan, supported by urbanization and waste management reforms.
By 2035, landfill gas will emerge as a mainstream renewable energy source for electricity and RNG production across major industrial economies.

Key Drivers, Challenges, and Opportunities
Driver - Renewable Energy Mandates and Methane Emission Controls
Government-driven clean energy targets and stricter methane reduction policies are accelerating landfill gas utilization. Global agencies are promoting landfill gas projects as a dual benefit: energy generation and greenhouse gas mitigation. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the EU's Methane Action Plan are encouraging utilities and municipalities to adopt advanced gas capture technologies to meet decarbonization goals.
Restraint - High Project Costs and Infrastructure Challenges
Landfill gas projects face high upfront capital expenditures related to gas collection systems, treatment facilities, and power generation infrastructure. Smaller sites often struggle with financial viability due to limited economies of scale. Additional regulatory compliance and grid connection requirements further slow commercialization, especially in developing regions.
Opportunity - Circular Economy and Renewable Gas Demand
The growing emphasis on a circular economy is creating new opportunities for landfill gas in electricity, heating, and RNG markets. Utilities and industries are investing in RNG to replace fossil-based natural gas, aided by carbon credit programs and renewable portfolio standards. Municipalities are leveraging landfill gas projects to meet sustainability goals while generating new revenue streams from clean energy production.
Key Trend - Advanced Gas Upgrading and Digital Monitoring
A key trend shaping the landfill gas sector is the deployment of advanced gas upgrading systems to produce pipeline-quality biomethane. Technologies such as membrane separation, cryogenic purification, and pressure swing adsorption are improving gas purity and energy yield.
Simultaneously, digitalization is transforming operations: IoT-enabled sensors, predictive maintenance systems, and automated leak detection are enhancing collection efficiency and safety.
Integration with smart grids and real-time monitoring tools is providing transparency and attracting ESG-focused investors to landfill gas projects.
