We propose to:

- update existing anaerobic digestion standard rules to allow carbon capture, upgrading and temporary storage for utilisation, where operators can meet the new conditions
- withdraw standard rules set SR2009 No 4: combustion of biogas in engines at a sewage treatment works, as it is no longer required
