Summary

What changed
The European Commission issued a decision not to raise objections against Czechia's biomethane support scheme, finding the direct grants for biomethane production compatible with EU state aid rules under Article 107(3)(c) TFEU. The scheme operates from 2026 through 2030, with aid provided as direct grants to biomethane producers.
Renewable energy producers and biomethane project developers in Czechia may benefit from this scheme. Companies considering biomethane investments in other EU member states should note this decision as indicative of the Commission's approach to similar renewable energy aid schemes under the Clean Industrial Deal framework.
