Development cooperation

In developing and emerging countries, there is enormous, still unused potential for biogas technology. In addition to the vigorously growing markets in these countries, there is great interest in proven technologies and expertise from Europe. This presents an opportunity, particularly for companies in the German biogas industry. Especially in these markets, German Development Cooperation has a long history and extensive experience in implementing projects and programmes financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). Such projects have been carried out by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, by sequa or by the KfW Banking Group, among others. Development cooperation services include a portfolio of options for partnerships and financing, which shall ease market entry for German and European companies in the biogas industry looking for opportunities in developing countries and emerging economies.

Examples for the range of services for economic cooperation include financing and consultation for planned investments as well as financing of feasibility studies, financing and consultation for planned investments as well as financing of feasibility studies in developing and emerging countries, programmes for professionals such as management training programme for specialized and management staff, the Senior Expert Service(SES), the Centre for International Migration and Development (CIM), and last, but not least, the BMZ programme for development partnerships with the private sector – develoPPP.de – which has already been executed over thirty times by the biogas industry.
