A live venture by ENGIE
Building a digester is the first challenge. Keeping it fed is the hard part.
MetaNow is the operating system for biomethane feedstock — the coordination layer ENGIE built to keep every plant running at capacity.
Farm
Digester
Grid
Manure & crop residues become green gas — in the existing pipes.
Europe needs ~5× more biomethane by 2030 — 35 bcm, up from ~7 today.
The bottleneck
Right now, that supply chain is phone calls and spreadsheets.
Supply
One plant pulls feedstock from dozens of dispersed farms — coordinated today by phone, SMS, paper and constant on-site visits.
Proof
Every tonne now needs proof of origin. RED III made traceability mandatory, not optional.
Now multiply by four. France targets ~4× more biomethane by 2030 — every new plant chasing the same local supply.
Live today · 22 ENGIE sites
Not a prototype. A platform already in the field.
Suppliers
Farmers offer feedstock, get contracted, and get paid — in a few taps.
Operators
Operators fill the digester, lock contracts, and prove every tonne — automatically.
From first contact to signed supply — with a RED III audit trail by default.
Live today — 22 ENGIE units · 700+ GWh/yr · #1 biomethane producer in France.
How it gets built
Built with the field.

The bet
Tomorrow, Europe's feedstock moves through one layer.
The infrastructure green gas scales on — every tonne sourced, matched, and traceable.
