40 % of energy in Latvia is foreseen to be produced in 2020 from renewable resources. Fast development of biogas production, as most perspective, started in recent years. The Ministry of Economics of Latvia planned for 2011 quotas for producing 467 000 MWh electricity from biogas with increased tariffs. 58 new biogas plants will be built. The owners are mostly farmers, which have big farms and land. The proposed technologies and equipment suitable for the local conditions of Latvia are analysed. The advantages and disadvantages are presented, conclusions and proposals are elaborated.
