2025 Minnesota Renewable Energy Roundtable
Building Minnesota's Biogas Future
December 17, 2025 | Minneapolis, MN
Minnesota stands at a rare crossroads: the convergence of mounting pressure to decarbonize, a growing demand for renewable energy, and the untapped potential of organic waste streams offers a once-in-a-generation opportunity to lead in the biogas economy.
This year’s Minnesota Renewable Energy Roundtable will explore ways to secure Minnesota’s biogas future and preview a biogas roadmap that AURI will publish in 2026. It is essential that we tackle issues around biogas holistically. The event will dive into the interconnected systems that drive biogas and renewable natural gas, from manure to landfills, food waste, wastewater, natural gas pipelines, and more.
- Why Biogas: Biogas offers solutions to issues concerning waste disposal, clean energy, and fertilizer needs.
- Why Minnesota: The geographic, environmental, economic, and social dynamics of Minnesota make it uniquely positioned to benefit from a robust biogas industry and be a key driver of biogas production in the U.S.
- Keynote Speakers: National leaders in America’s energy progress, including Dr. Michael Schuppenhauer of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and Dr. Lorenzo Rosa of Carnegie Science.
- Interactive Panels: Discussing policies that broadly support revenue-generating infrastructure, reduce the cost of municipal waste handling, lower environmental impacts, and improve community resiliency.
- Networking Connections: Meeting other professionals keenly interested in this topic.
Join AURI for an engaging day discussing and shaping the future of biogas in Minnesota.
