What is bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS)?
Sustainably sourced biomass-generated energy (bioenergy) can be carbon neutral, as plants absorb CO 2 from the atmosphere as they grow. This, in turn, offsets CO 2 emissions released when the biomass is combusted as fuel. When sustainable bioenergy is paired with carbon capture and storage it becomes a source of negative

Types of Biogas Storage Systems | BioEnergy Consult
The energy, safety, and scrubbing requirements of medium- and high-pressure storage systems make them costly and high-maintenance options for non-commercial use. Such extra costs can be best justified for biomethane or bio-CNG, which has a higher heat content and is therefore a more valuable fuel than biogas.
