Project Results

As an EU-funded project, the Digital global Biogas Cooperation (DiBiCoo) is designed around certain results called ´Deliverables´. You may find completed reports of deliverables and look out for more to be included as they are completed. These deliverables are submitted to the EU’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program; and it is important to note some could be awaiting approval. While full access is restricted for confidential deliverables; others are available freely for download.

Deliverable reports are developed by the DiBiCoo consortium of 13 organizations from Europe, Africa, Asia and South America. As such, these documents are owned by DiBiCoo consortium and are subject to copyright. Allowance is made for fair usage of these documents with proper referencing.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 857804. The sole responsibility for the content of these documents lies with the authors. It does not necessarily reflect the opinion of the EU.

Description of European Legal, Institutional and Political Frameworks

Executive Summary Renewable policy performance depends on several key factors including financial sustainability, adequate infrastructure, good and competent administration, clear proceedings, standardization and clear interconnection rules. If one is missing, the market might not develop. On the other hand, if support mechanisms like Feed-in-Tariff (FIT) are too high, it has the consequence of very fast
