Renewable fuels such as biomethane and green hydrogen for use in transport are supported by the Department’s Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation (RTFO).

The use of biomethane and hydrogen in applications outside transport would be a matter for the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS).
