The main topic of the report is the analysis of the potential of renewable liquid gases (rLG), such as renewable liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and renewable dimethyl ether (DME), in aiding decarbonization efforts in Europe.
The key finding is that with strong political support and technological advancements, Europe could produce up to 27,389 kilotons (350 TWh) equivalent of LPG renewable liquid gas annually by 2050, which is sufficient to meet a large portion of the current LPG demand in Europe. This production will be supported by the availability of feedstock, particularly from waste-based sources such as agricultural residues, animal fats, and used cooking oils.
