With regard to biogas and anaerobic digestion, the Ministry of the Environment, Energy and the Sea gives the following explanations: "Anaerobic digestion is a natural process of biological degradation of organic matter. It can occur naturally in certain environments such as marshes or can be implemented voluntarily in dedicated units thanks to industrial equipment. It produces a gas called "biogas", consisting mainly of methane (50 to 70%) and carbon dioxide. It is the methane contained in biogas that gives it its energetic properties. "
