SLIDE 9 Planned over 4-Year Project Period:
Component 2: Biogas Market Development and Regulatory Framework
Outcome 2: Market environment for biogas strengthened and regulatory framework for grid-connected small to medium scale waste-to-energy projects developed Output: 2.1 Biogas Quality Standards - GCS/SABS
– Target: 2 standards (<0.5GJ/hr (SANS 1753-1) and >0.5GJ/hr (SANS 1753-2) – SANS 1753-1 Gone through 1st round at SABS TC and industry next step is public comments – SANS 1753-2 submitted to SABS and at their editors and drawing office – Training manual for 1753-1 is being developed
2.2 Valorisation of Digestate – ARC
– Target: Study digestate value-chain from the 5 waste-streams (preferably from demonstration projects digesters) – Sources of digestate identified; analysis capability mapped; trials started; some results obtained
2.3 Biogas licence process streamlined 2.4 Grid Access Regulatory Framework for small/medium scale biogas projects
