To stimulate investments in renewable energy the preferential pricing mechanism foresees minimum price for electricity produced from biomass.
Possible usage of the funding instrument in the P2G context: Preferential pricing allows a potential investor in P2G installation to diversify his risk with the possibility to produce and sell electricity in addition to the production of renewable gas. Depending on the current market price of natural gas the energy from the biomass can be directed either for production of electricity, production of renewable natural gas, or both.
