ADBA leads first UK delegation at Ecomondo 2026, showcasing British biogas expertise

The Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA) brought UK industry expertise to the international stage at Ecomondo 2026 in Rimini, Italy, leading its first UK delegation and exhibition stand alongside member companies WASE, Biofuel AI, EMS Industries and ELIQUO HYDROK. 

Held from 3-6 November, Ecomondo brought together businesses, industry representatives, national associations and international delegations from across the green technology and bioenergy sectors. For ADBA, the event provided an important opportunity to raise the profile of the UK anaerobic digestion (AD) industry, strengthen international relationships and explore new opportunities for its members. 

Showcasing UK industry and innovation 

A key highlight was ADBA’s first UK delegation, bringing together representatives from

• WASE,
• Biofuel AI,
• EMS Industries and
• ELIQUO HYDROK

The delegation showcased the breadth of expertise and innovation across the UK AD and biogas supply chain, while giving participating members the opportunity to explore international markets, establish new connections, and discuss potential partnerships. 

ADBA’s exhibition stand, delivered in collaboration with the World Biogas Association (WBA), was a hive of activity throughout the event. It welcomed national associations, international delegations, members, sponsors and businesses from across the global biogas value chain. 

The conversations provided valuable opportunities to exchange knowledge, discuss developments across the sector and highlight the contribution UK businesses can make to the growth of anaerobic digestion and biogas internationally. 

Creating opportunities for ADBA members 

International events such as Ecomondo play an important role in connecting ADBA members with potential customers, partners and markets beyond the UK. Taking part in the delegation enabled member companies to raise their international profile, showcase their capabilities and gain greater exposure to developments and opportunities across the European and global bioenergy markets. 

The event also reinforced the importance of collaboration between national associations and the wider international biogas community in supporting the sector’s continued development. 

ADBA looks forward to building on the relationships established at Ecomondo, creating further opportunities for its members and continuing to champion British anaerobic digestion expertise on the international stage.
