Abstract: The heart of biogas industry is on, with going on transformation and upgrading. Upgraded biogas, namely biomethane, is a low-carbon, clean, safe and efficient renewable energy, which very often has been neglected in energy debate. However, it shows great contributions to promoting the transformation and upgrading of energy structure and energy security, building an ecological civilization, etc. The successful business cases in Europe have displayed many reasons to keep developing this sector. Hence, taking China as an example, this work aims to benefit the government and energy transition stakeholders more broadly in working together to enable and manage successful biogas industry transition with the experience of European countries. This includes how policymakers can help to guarantee the healthy development of biomethane industry, and what the government and companies can do to boost the market, economy and technology of biomethane. The ultimate target is to prosper the world's biomethane industry to meet people's ever-growing demands for a better life and a beautiful environment.
