This grant program provides financial support to agricultural enterprises that deliver livestock manure to biogas plants in Norway. The purpose is to reduce climate gas emissions by utilizing methane gas that is produced during the storage of livestock manure. Methane represents a significant portion of agriculture's contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, and by capturing and utilizing this gas through biogas facilities, emissions can be substantially reduced. The subsidy is calculated primarily per ton of livestock manure delivered to biogas facilities. Agricultural enterprises with livestock that deliver manure to biogas plants in Norway are eligible to apply. Applications must be submitted electronically with a deadline of February 20 the year after the delivery has occurred.
