Biogas is produced from manure, sludge and other organic waste. After ‘upgrading’, biogas can be blended as biomethane into the natural gas network. Discover how this works.

If your organization works with gases, it may be important to know their calorific value or Wobbe Index. In addition, it's crucial that the gas does not contain harmful trace components. At Kiwa, you can rely on expert analysis of a wide range of gas properties: volume, quality, (main) components, higher hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons, sulfur compounds (such as H₂S), siloxanes and THT odorization.
Leaks in bio methane or biogas installations can’t only lead to dangerous situations but also pose a threat to the environment. Additionally, leaking gas represents a direct financial loss. That’s why it is crucial to detect and repair leaks and vulnerable areas in green gas and biogas systems as quickly as possible. Kiwa can assist with this by conducting camera inspections using an advanced gas imaging camera.
Natural gas, hydrogen gas and many other gases are naturally odorless. This can cause dangerous situations, for example if a leak or other incident occurs. Gases that are distributed via the Dutch gas network must therefore be scented with a so-called odorant.

Green gas is gaining popularity as a sustainable alternative to fossil natural gas. It helps reduce CO₂ emissions and contributes to the energy transition. But what is it exactly? And how does it differ from biogas? In this article, we will guide you through the basics of green gas, its injection into the natural gas grid and what is involved in the process.
Kiwa, together with Alliander, DEP and Stedin, has won the IGU Global Gas Award during the 29th World Gas Conference (WGC2025) in Beijing. The award was granted for the paper ‘OGMP 2.0 Methane Emissions Reporting: The Dutch Approach’.
How can your Smart Energy Hub prepare for a future where hydrogen plays a central role in the energy transition? Let’s explore some critical questions that can help your hub make strategic choices.
Kiwa is proud to collaborate with Hydriven, the student team from the University of Twente and Saxion University of Applied Sciences, focused on developing a hydrogen-powered race car for the Formula Student competition. In this video, the team shares insights about their race car and what they aim to achieve with it.
