DESCRIPTION:The transport sector has a low penetration of renewable energy 
 representing a serious obstacle to tackle the climate change. Biomethane i
 sa decarbonisation solution and the recovery of some wastesupports the dev
 elopment of circular economy models. This presentation aims to investigate
  its economic sustainability. An integrated SWOT-AHP analysis is applied t
 o the biomethane sector showing as the adoption of governmental support pr
 ograms plays a key role. An economic model based on DCF methodology is pro
 posedto evaluate the profitability of biomethane plants. Currently\, produ
 ction costs of biomethane are not competitive with fossil gas. Its discoun
 ted value varies from 0.61 to 0.88 €/m3 for by-products and from 0.64 to 0
 .91 €/m3 for organic waste. The economic feasibility is verified only in s
 ome scenarios and subsidies play a key role. Furthermore\, the variation o
 f critical variables significantly influences the profitability leading to
  the necessity to present alternative case studies. Currently\, energy com
 panies are interested in plants realization that recovered organic wastes 
 due to the additional income obtained by their treatment. Finally\, biomet
 hane can be defined as a value added resource that integrates waste manage
 ment and renewable energy supporting the reduction of the air pollution. S
 hort BioIdiano D’Adamo is a Post Doctoral Research Fellow at the Universit
 y of L’Aquila. He obtained Italian National Qualification for Associate Pr
 ofessor position on August 2018. He received the Master of Science in Mana
 gement Engineering in 2008 and the Ph.D. in Electrical and Information Eng
 ineering in 2012. Both from the University of L’Aquila. His current resear
 ch interests are circular economy\, renewable energy\, sustainability and 
 waste management. In August 2015\, he obtained the Elsevier Atlas Price wi
 th a work published in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews. During hi
 s academic career\, Idiano D’Adamo published 50 papers indexed in the Scop
 us database\, reaching an h-index of 19. His works are published in leadin
 g international journals\, as Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews\, E
 nergy Conversion and Management\, Journal of Cleaner Production\, Science 
 of the Total Environment\, Energy and Buildings\, International Journal of
  Systems Science and International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy.
  He is a reviewer of about fourty-five journals indexed in Scopus. He rece
 ived two Excellence Review Awards: Waste Management in 2017 and Resources
